Telehealth for wound care via the Healthphone (US)

Steve Hards

A new Seattle-based company called Healthphone has been formed to market the system in the US and elsewhere. Healthphone general manager Pam Fowler explained: “You get all the documentation, care plans, treatments, and images in one place. Other wounds are documented in the same patient profile. And you can look at the wounds over time. Many elderly patients have the same wounds for years. This improves the communication and heal rates, but it also helps with the patient seeing the progression and improvement.” More here.
