Telehealth

New technologies such as telehealth help improve health care services. For technology to work it must work for the people it is meant to help - patients and the professionals providing care. Telehealth in VA helps ensure Veteran patients get the right care in the right place at the right time and aims to make the home into the preferred place of care, whenever possible. If the home, or place of residence, is going to be the preferred site of care the caregiver in the home and caregiver support in the local community becomes ever more important. The person who is usually there to deal with the fears and frustrations of the patient as they cope with their illness each day, transport them to the clinics and provide personal care is the caregiver in the home.
