If someone cannot meet face-to-face with a doctor or other member of their clinical team or the appointment does not warrant the trip, then telemedicine provides an excellent alternative. The technology allows you to send and receive messages, get live support, and even provide status updates about your health using monitoring devices. Many free apps and websites exist to facilitate telehealth. The practice of using remote medical services is now widespread, and we intend to incorporate it into our network of facilities.
How We Use Telemedicine
We can monitor and conduct some aspects of the treatment process over secured telecommunication devices like smartphones, tablets, and computers. The option to use technology for substance use disorder is ideal for:
- Admissions prescreen and assessment
- Medication management
- Case management
- Individual therapy
- Medical check-ins
- Aftercare services
