Home telehealth involves the use of technologies in the home that allow patients to receive education and daily monitoring of vital signs and/or video visits from a registered nurse or therapist. Thus, it could be said, that home telehealth extends the eyes, ears and touch of home care, bringing specialized medical monitoring to people who need it, as a supplement to in‐person home visits. These technologies save countless health care dollars by helping to reduce hospitalizations and the use of emergent care services.
