The patient care journey is traditionally a fragmented one, especially for more complex and chronic conditions that involve multiple healthcare providers. As a result, a patient’s critical health data may be stored and siloed across disparate IT systems or in outdated pen-and-paper systems.

In 2018, Australian healthtech startup CareMonitor was founded to solve this challenge.

Telehealth platforms like CareMonitor have played a huge role in curbing the effects of COVID-19. Now, they’re ready to modernise our healthcare practices.

With a proliferation of digital health tools in recent times, it is increasingly important to use independent evidence based findings to evaluate efficacy. Dr. Liliana Laranjo (Research Fellow, Faculty of Medicine and Health, Westmead Applied Research Centre) shared the results of a research study involving remote monitoring of heart failure patients using CareMonitor at a recent Digital Health CRC event

Patients in Western Sydney who have contracted the coronavirus but are at low to medium risk of serious illness are being remotely monitored at home by GPs and hospital-based community health teams using CareMonitor's shared care software and biometric measurements such as temperature, oxygen saturation, blood pressure and heart rate.

In an Australian first, Western Sydney PHN (WentWest) teamed up with the Western Sydney Local Health District (WSLHD) to provide a seamless transition of services and management of COVID-19 patients from the Hospital into the community using CareMonitor software platform
