To access this service the patient connects to the Internet from home, using his personal device (smartphone, tablet or computer). The patient answers self-assessment questionnaire(s) daily. The data entered by the patient in the Telehomecare Platform is transmitted to his healthcare professional throughout the treatment. Although the data is quickly transmitted to the clinician, it is important to remember this is not an emergency service.<\/p>\n<h2>What activities are offered?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Daily monitoring of <strong>symptoms<\/strong> (e.g. shortness of breath, cough, secretion, fatigue, etc.);<\/li>\n<li>Monitoring of lung and <strong>general condition<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<li>Follow-up of <strong>medication<\/strong> intake;<\/li>\n<li>Consultation with the <strong>health library<\/strong> (e.g. signs and symptoms, aggravating factors and strategies for preventing and managing symptoms);<\/li>\n<li>Communication with the clinical team by <strong>messaging<\/strong> (e.g. question, report of a problem, etc.).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Testimony of Mr. Roy&#8221; icon_placement=&#8221;left&#8221; icon_placement_tablet=&#8221;top&#8221; icon_placement_phone=&#8221;top&#8221; icon_placement_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; module_class=&#8221;rqt-blue-testimony rqt-global-text&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;b066f166-a76f-4d18-90c9-3808c71c0c7c&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>User of the COPD telehomecare Monitoring service<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I find it very simple and easy to use and it has brought me three things:<\/p>\n<p>The first is a better <strong>knowledge of my disease<\/strong> and a better ability to detect worsening symptoms as soon as they start which, in turn, helps me act on them more quickly. <\/p>\n<p>The second is a much greater <strong>feeling of safety<\/strong>.  One time, for example, I had answered my questionnaire, and I had a symptom that had gotten worse.  As soon as my respiratory therapist got to her office, she called me to ask me some questions. We solved the problem, and she guided me on what to do. <\/p>\n<p>Finally, it has helped me be <strong>more regular in taking my medication<\/strong>, which is very important! <\/p>\n<p>Whenever there are small problems, my RT even gives me tips. She suggests videos for me to watch on the health library.
