The
WHIN-CareCompanion product suite includes the CareCompanion
Nurse Station and the CareCompanion Patient Unit. The CareCompanion
Nurse Station is a desktop computer and videophone that connects
over standard telephone lines to a CareCompanion Patient Unit
installed in the patient’s residence.
Allowing more frequent and consistent contact between remote
patients and healthcare providers, resulting in prevention
and early intervention, WHIN-CareCompanion significantly reduces
costs associated with clinic and emergency room visits and
hospitalizations.
WHIN-CareCompanion provides unmatched ease of use for both
patients and caregivers, with the flexibility of both live
and store-and-forward functionality. And because it uses a
regular telephone line to transmit data directly from point
to point, it’s completely secure, with no need for Internet
connection fees!
WHIN has formed partnerships with information providers such
as Aurora Health Care's hospitals, and other hospitals, as
well as, clinics, laboratories and more. Like you, these information
providers are committed to improving communications between
providers for the benefit of the patient.
