Promoting independent living with Health Buddy®
Most seniors have the desire to remain living in the comfort of their own home surrounded by the memories of a lifetime. The Swedish Visiting Nurse Services gives seniors and their families the confidence and freedom to live at home independently.
Health Buddy®
Imagine the security of knowing a registered nurse is going to check on your health everyday.
The Health Buddy is an appliance that plugs into your telephone line and electrical outlet. Each day, Health Buddy asks you a series of questions about how you’re feeling. You answer the questions by pushing one of its four buttons. The entire process takes only a few minutes.
You can answer Health Buddy’s questions any time during the day that is convenient for you. Sometime after midnight, your Health Buddy silently and automatically dials a toll-free number to send your information to your health care team. It then receives new questions and helpful information that will be waiting for you when you wake up.
Your doctor and authorized health professionals will be able to access the information to evaluate your progress and assist you with even better care.
