Baptist Trinity Home Care has enhanced its services by offering daily monitoring through the HomMed Health Monitoring System to help care for many patients suffering from chronic cardiac or respiratory conditions such as congestive heart failure, hypertension and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder.
Through an exclusive agreement with HomMed, Baptist Trinity Home Care collects patients’ vital signs daily with the use of new, in-home telemonitoring technology. Patients get a check-up every day in the comfort of their own homes, allowing irregularities to be detected and addressed before even the slightest abnormalities become full-fledged problems, which can prevent emergency room visits and hospitalizations. Nurses are sent to patients’ homes as needed based on the daily data to work directly with the patient’s doctor to adjust medication and diet regimens. The HomMed Health Monitoring System is individually programmed for patients according to their physicians. In just three minutes each day, the system collects a variety of vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, body weight and temperature. HomMed™ LLC is a leader in the rapidly growing home patient telemonitoring industry. The in-home HomMed Sentry III is an FDA Class II medical device. Since 1998, more than 140 health care organizations have partnered with HomMed to form a national provider network, allowing HomMed’s technology to touch the lives of 20,000 patients in 2002.
