Here are some of the benefits …

 Helps prioritise and determine the levels of care and support required for an individual. Real time data gives new lines of sight into the wellbeing status of an individual.
 Prevents escalation and avoids potential crisis by immediate and easy access to an individual’s wellbeing dashboard – reduces hospital admissions, GP appointments, referrals, 911 and 999 calls.
 Minimises the number of unnecessary visits to an individual’s home through remote monitoring of real time data.
 Better utilisation of clinical time through better informed conversations such as those related to meal times, sleeping patterns, signs of weakness or changes in daily routine.
 Facilitates the design of more personalised care plans through deeper analysis of contextual wellbeing data over time.
 Supports continued independence through timely interventions and preventative action. MySense can help maintain regular food and fluid intake, identify physical deterioration and signs of frailty.

Once a patient is hospitalised, the Biobeat chest-monitor is attached to the patient’s chest and 14 cardio-pulmonary vital signs measurements appear in real time, including: blood pressure, blood saturation, heart rate, respiratory rate and temperature.
All measurements and trends can be viewed through the Biobeat Web Platform, allowing the management of an unlimited number of patients through one intuitive platform.
What are the benefits?
The system eliminates the need for multiple wired devices, frequent spot-checks of vital signs and manual data entry done by the medical staff. Using Biobeat’s platform, the patient’s data syncs directly into the hospital EMR system, reducing human errors and freeing up time for health care providers to complete other tasks.

Hospital at Home is a short-term, targeted intervention that provides a level of acute hospital care in an individual’s own home that is equivalent to that provided within a hospital.

Here are the benefits

Hospital at Home may reduce the likelihood that patients will be living in residential care in the months after the acute episode. This is really important as older people with frailty are at particular risk of being affected by institutionalisation and delirium. Some 30% to 56% have been shown to experience a reduction in their functional ability between admission to hospital and discharge.

Costs of Hospital at Home are generally lower than inpatient care, but there can be considerable variation in costs between services. Hospital at Home services have the potential to be a cost-effective option.
