Our visual care technology can be a real boon for GPs and their patients, who often find travelling to regular appointments quite draining, especially for those who are not very mobile.
The visual care system allows GPs to hold a virtual appointment in the patient's own lounge - the patient simply sits in front of their TV at appointment time and presses a few buttons. They can then see and talk to the doctor without leaving the comfort of their own home.
Applications for GPs
Visual care technology offers the opportunity for GPs to achieve both high levels of patient care and real cost efficiency. As part of the Red Embedded Group, a leading provider of embedded video technology, we provide a complete visual care service using tried and tested video conferencing technology that's easy to use, and cost effective and quick to implement.
With attention increasingly focussed on GPs, our service provides a straightforward and cost effective means of bringing all the advantages of video consultation to GP practices without the need for in-house specialist knowledge. The service is especially beneficial to helping in the management of long term conditions where patients can travel only with difficulty and where a home visit would otherwise be required. Creating a three-way clinical triage linking patient, GP and hospital specialist is another area where video conferencing can make a real difference, markedly shortening the pathway to care for the patient.
We provide all the hardware, software and training required on a per patient per month fee. It's a simple, cost effective service, and it's available now.
Red Embedded Systems’ service provides hospitals with a video consultation service, linking patients at home to their doctor's surgery. Patients use a simple TV and broadband based system to see and talk to their GP, who can carry out a virtual outpatient clinic from a PC at their surgery, or remotely from a laptop or home computer.
