And in Yorkshire, UK, Scarborough Hospital has announced the purchase of 100 telehealth systems. £115k help for heart patients at home. As one grateful service user is reported as saying, he was “phoning for emergency help up to once a week at some times and was a regular at A&E…But since using telehealth, I haven’t been in hospital once – it’s like a weight’s been lifted off my shoulders.”
