5 Health Espresso Remote Home Care Services

1. Call your family doctor’s office

Health Espresso is a secure and private platform that connects the Primary Physician – Care Team with the patient. It allows health care professionals to view a patient’s digital profile. It is video capable for virtual communication between the primary user of the app or the caregiver and the primary physician and/ or hospital staff. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people are concerned about having no in-person access to their doctor. Tele-medicine has offset the limited physicians’ access created by the pandemic and provided alternative virtual access to individuals who are just not physically able to attend appointments in person due to existing health-issues or disabilities. Health Espresso’s home care assistance app raises the bar by providing the physician with a digital patient profile of the patient’s vitals and health records for a better-informed decision.

2. Visit a designated Coronavirus clinic

If you suspect that you have the Coronavirus, then you can visit a designated COVID-19 clinic. The symptoms associated with COVID-19 are the following: a cough, a fever, and shortness of breath. The current recommendation is to stay home and self-isolate for 14 days if your symptoms are mild and surpass 2 days. However, if they worsen, then you are advised to go get tested for COVID-19. You can fill out a COVID-19 self-evaluation form on Health Espresso’s site to get a diagnosis from a doctor or you can call a testing center to book an in-person appointment.

3. Use a self-managed, in-home care app

You can use a virtual health app such as Health Espresso to book a tele-medicine appointment with a doctor. This app connects you to health care professionals with access to your digital patient profile. It also facilitates 2-way communication among the patient and the primary physician-care team in the field to provide timely updates on your progress. They will ensure that you are given the care you need to get back to your healthy state. You have to download the Health Espresso home care assistance app and build a digital patient profile, then, give your doctor access to your health information such as blood type, and any existing health conditions. You can also fill out a profile for a loved one and connect with the doctor on their behalf. This app uses a patient-centered approach and provides a platform for a digital care plan for your circle of care team to follow. They will likely ask you to record your symptoms on a daily basis in the app to keep them up to date on your progress. Health Espresso also allows you to populate your prescribed medication as part of your profile for an adverse drug to drug interaction check.Then the home care assistance app will send you alerts to take your medication.
