Telemedicine & senior citizens
Telemedicine as a model for the future
Elfriede is 75 and lives alone in her large country house. Although she is still very fit and agile, she has recently started to suffer from low blood pressure and fatigue. Until now, she has kept a detailed record of her pulse and blood pressure readings and submitted her notes to her doctor. However, she finds the increasingly frequent visits to the doctor increasingly tedious. Especially as she lives in the countryside and the journey to her doctor's surgery is relatively long.
A friend and former carer recommended the JAMES Tablet and Vital sensors. With the JAMES Tablet is a senior-friendly tablet for video telephony and for recording important health data. In combination with the Vital sensors - a Bluetooth body scale and blood pressure device - does this work? JAMES Tablet like a digital health coach. The with the Vital sensors The values determined are sent directly to the ward, where they can be called up at any time. The video telephony function also enables online medical checks. Thanks to JAMES Elfriede no longer has to make the arduous journey for routine check-ups. In addition, the tablet reminds her to take important medication and is connected to the JAMES Care Centre where nurse Michaela works.
Michaela looks after the vital signs of up to 50 senior citizens at the Care Centre and contacts the person concerned and their family in the event of unusual values. So if Elfriede's blood pressure drops sharply, she and her relatives are informed immediately and consulted about what to do next.
Telemedicine as a model for the future
Elfriede's cousin Peter also takes advantage of the JAMES Health functions. Peter carries the JAMES emergency call watch B6, which, in addition to the mobile home emergency call, specialises in measuring pulse and blood pressure. The nature-loving senior citizen walks a lot and therefore measures his values several times a day. The data obtained is then sent directly to the JAMES APP in which his son Gerhard can check on his father's health.
