Staying Safe with Remote Health Monitoring<\/b><\/h1>\n

Even in the midst of these challenging times, there is still much to be thankful for. Electronic Caregiver clients, access to quality care, and remote health monitoring are definitely high on the list! For those who have chronic health conditions, immediate access to healthcare services is vital. Electronic Caregiver is proud to be able to provide remote patient monitoring to those who live alone, are concerned about keeping a health appointment, or for whom getting to a doctor\u2019s office is not a simple task.<\/p>\n

\"JeanneRemote Patient Monitoring for Chronic Illnesses<\/b><\/h3>\n

Jeanne Pomeroy, a Pro Health user, knows firsthand how much 24\/7 chronic care and remote patient monitoring<\/a> can provide peace of mind. Pomeroy has a chronic heart condition, high blood pressure and is borderline diabetic. She uses the Pro Health<\/span><\/a> to check her blood pressure, heart rate, pulse oximetry, and blood glucose daily.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pomeroy\u2019s vital readings get sent to a team at Zia Health Management, LLC,<\/a> a partner of Electronic Caregiver, as well as her physician at La Familia Primary Care in Raton. Then, if Zia Health gets an abnormal reading, a team member will reach out to her. They verify that the reading is accurate and then facilitate communication between her and her doctor, if necessary.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re very good about responding,\u201d Pomeroy said. \u201cIf they see something that they think might need attention, I\u2019ll get a phone call and I really appreciate that. It\u2019s obvious to me that some live person, who knows me or knows my situation, checks on me on a daily basis.\u201d<\/p>\n

Peace of Mind with Electronic Caregiver Pro Health
\n<\/b><\/h3>\n

Today, Pomeroy is recovering from having a pacemaker placed in her chest. She says the Pro Health gives her an added peace of mind during the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring my post-surgery time right now \u2013 my healing process \u2013 it\u2019s nice to know someone is checking up on me. And it\u2019s a scary time. We\u2019re all in the midst of a very scary time,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Immediate Health Help with Premier<\/b><\/h3>\n

Premier<\/a><\/span> user Catherine Seder considers her medical alert pendant to be her lucky charm. In fact, she doesn\u2019t go a day without it. She had her system for two years, and in fact didn\u2019t need to use it\u2014until she experienced three falls in the span of three days.<\/p>\n

For seniors like Seder, falls can be dangerous and even deadly<\/span><\/a>. Having a button to press for real-time, human help can make all the difference for someone who has fallen. Even those who are typically steady on their feet and in good health can experience a fall. Normally a physically fit person, Seder says that temporary severe dehydration caused by antibiotics prescribed by her doctor, as well as a lack of exercise, led to her falls.<\/p>\n

Direct Connection to Emergency Services <\/b><\/h3>\n

\u201cI fell trying to go to the bathroom and my legs buckled on me, so I said, \u2018help\u2019 into the (Premier system\u2019s) mini controller,\u201d she said. The controller works in conjunction with the pendant, which has a Medical Concern Button that connects users with Emergency Medical Dispatch Operators. Because of an immediate connection, the emergency response team<\/a> members found and helped her quickly. The dispatch operator stayed on the line with her until they came.<\/p>\n

\u201cJames, who was taking the call, never left the line. I was lying on the floor for 10 minutes. (He waited) to see how things were going and say that (first responders) were on their way. When they arrived, I got to say \u2018goodbye\u2019 to him, so it was a real blessing,\u201d she said of her emergency services after falling.<\/p>\n

Seder says she is grateful for the quick response time and friendly customer service with the Premier system.<\/p>\n

Staying Independent with Electronic Caregiver\"Older<\/b><\/h3>\n

One thing we hear over and over again from users like Jeanne and Catherine is how grateful they are that Electronic Caregiver systems allow them to remain independent and live at home. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the option to remain in place is vital for seniors. Both the Pro Health and Premier systems offer the peace of mind that comes with personalized care, 24\/7 emergency response and, for those who use Pro Health, daily vitals monitoring.<\/p>\n

These are just a couple of the stories of thanks we receive regularly from those who use Electronic Caregiver\u2019s products and services. We\u2019d love to hear your story\u2014share it with us at<\/p>\n
