Hospital Meds to Beds Program
A hospital’s “Meds-to-Beds” program streamlines the discharge process by delivering prescribed medications to patients at their bedside before they leave the hospital. This program aims to enhance medication adherence and reduce post-discharge issues by ensuring patients have their medications readily available and understand how to take them.
By using cellular-connected medical devices, we track key health metrics such as blood pressure, glucose levels, and heart rate, all of which are transmitted to our secure HIPAA-compliant platform for analysis. This continuous flow of health data allows for early detection of potential issues, reducing hospital readmissions and improving long-term patient outcomes.
