Honeywell HomMed® TeleHealth

In-Home Patient Monitoring

Though there are several different in-home monitoring systems in use today, Great Lakes Home Health and Hospice uses the industry-leading Honeywell HomMed® TeleHealth monitoring system, raising the standard of health care we provide to our patients in the home.

What is HomMed® TeleHealth?

A Honeywell HomMed® TeleHealth system is a combination of advanced communication technology and health monitoring equipment that is kept in the patient’s home to collect vital information and clinical data regarding his/her condition on a daily basis. This data is transmitted via a standard telephone connection or Skytel® private wireless network to a central office, where a specially trained clinician monitors and reviews the data being updated.

If the data shows unexpected readings, the clinician will contact the patient with instructions to re-monitor, contact the patient’s physician, send a nurse to the patient’s home or contact emergency personnel directly, depending on the severity of the issue.
