Technology continues to transform the ways in which children of today grow, learn, and communicate.
Healthy children perform better in school. Educators are well aware that keeping children well, ready-to-learn, and in the classroom can improve their academic achievement and life prospects.
TeleMedico is improving access to healthcare for students through telemedicine.
Schools have an important role to play in promoting the health of children, and they have recognized this in many ways— from health education to the presence of school nurses to the move toward school-based health centers. However, many schools do not have the resources to meet the health care needs of their students.
TeleMedico’s technology is about people. It is about how we can use technology to help improve the lives of individuals. We simply provide an alternative way to deliver existing services.
Using our Medical Grade TeleMedico Cart, schools can connect with providers using our high-definition HIPAA compliant videoconferencing platform, remote stethoscope, Otoscope, and DermScope to make better diagnosis.
We collaborate with primary care providers to provide continuity of care:
Some of the most common conditions treated:
- Ear ache
- Stomach ache
- Chronic disease management
- Medication management
- Sports physicals
- Telepsychology / Telebehavioral health
TeleMedico allows school nurses to connect ill students with health care providers. School-based health centers have been shown to improve attendance and reduce barriers to learning. TeleMedico increases classroom attendance for students and decreases time spent away from work for the parent or care giver of the student.
