Home care, telemedicine for Covid patients pushed in NCR

Third Anne Peralta-Malonzo

WITH hospitals in the National Capital Region (NCR) filling up, some facilities are promoting home care and telemedicine services to ensure that coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) patients are still closely monitored and attended to in their homes.

The Medical City has partnered with Home Healthlink Innovations Inc. to provide a Covid home care program for suspected and confirmed cases with no or mild symptoms.

The program includes online day-to-day monitoring and assessment from a physician, as well as a visit from a doctor if necessary.
