INS LifeGuard AU
Now those with chronic medical conditions can have their health and wellbeing monitored by a qualified nurse 24/7 right in the comfort of their own home. They can take and record vital signs, which are monitored by nurses in our Emergency Response Centre, and schedule regular virtual nursing reviews and even virtual GP consults using the newest TeleHealth products and services offered by INS LifeGuard.
From simple appointment reminders to complex electronic medical record systems, TeleHealth and eHealth systems have the potential to save lives and improve the quality of life for older people. Many find it difficult to visit a doctor, either because they live in remote areas or have mobility issues that can make travel a challenge.
Our innovative TeleHealth technologies enable people to have their health conditions monitored from home. They can schedule virtual consults with a nurse or even a GP when the need arises. This can lead to improved health outcomes and quality of life.
Importantly, our technologies also address issues of social isolation among older people. Research confirms that being socially isolated can negatively affect both mental and physical health. Older people value and wish to maintain their participation in family, community and social spheres.
For this reason, our TeleHealth technologies, such as the LifeGuard SmartHome, incorporate access to the internet, social media, email, Skype, YouTube, and more so people can stay connected with family and friends, especially those who may be distant. This is important, as chronic loneliness can adversely affect both mental and physical wellbeing.
