TELUS Home Health Monitoring

The TELUS Home Health Monitoring (HHM) platform uses remote patient monitoring technology to monitor a patient’s health, and shares the information electronically with health-care teams.

When to use it

Monitoring and tracking patients vital signs, symptoms or general health on a regular basis, remotely.

Technical requirements
