The Cottons Medical Centre – Northamptonshire
Dr Negi, a GP partner at the Cottons Medical Centre and PCN frailty lead, explains her experience of remote monitoring in care homes. She recalls her initial concerns with using remote monitoring and the benefits that are now observed within care homes that have adopted the service:
- A reduction in the number of GP calls from the care homes
- Early interventions – the hub advising care homes to contact the GP to discuss early concerns
“it has worked and reduced our workload”
