Telehealth
Quality health care from the comfort of your home.
Simply put, telehealth means delivering health care from a distance. Good Samaritan Society telehealth provides the supportive services you need to stay in your own home for as long as possible.
Telehealth services include remote care delivery and monitoring tools that enable our home care staff to:
- Reduce emergency room and hospital visits
- Improve care delivery
- Reduce overall health care expenses
- Assist with communication to family and physicians with your permission
- Empower you to participate in your care
Why is telehealth a good choice for you and your family?
- Changes in vital signs are monitored daily to proactively address any health concerns
- Promotes independence and can help you to remain in your own home
- Empowers you to achieve your goals
- Increases your knowledge of your condition, so you can proactively prevent illness and stay in control of your health and well-being
Because you’re receiving health care at home, telehealth may reduce the need for a hospital visit. And it can help increase your quality of life by empowering you to achieve goals and reduce anxiety.
