1. A method for effectively implementing a therapist defined therapeutic regimen and a patient, comprising the steps of:
providing a central processing system for storing configuration information, status information and patient profile information associated with a plurality of therapist defined therapeutic regimens; providing a therapist computer interface for allowing a therapist to interface with the central processing system to define therapeutic regimens for a patient and monitor such; providing a patient computing device with a display for allowing a patient to interface with the central processing system for running a personal therapeutic application thereon for allowing the patient to implement a therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient; configuring by the therapist via the therapist computer interface the therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient at the central processing system; transferring the configured therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient to the patient computing device after configuration; executing by the patient the configured therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient by the steps of:
selecting the configured therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient that was transferred to the patient's patient computing device;selecting from the selected configured therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient all or a portion thereof, which supplies a menu driven application that presents to the patient the selected all or a portion of the configured therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient for execution by the patient;executing the selected all or a portion of the configured therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient;communicating status of the step of execution back to the central processing system of the selected all or a portion executed;monitoring by the therapist via the therapist computer interface the status of the execution of the configured therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient and the portion thereof executed; andinputting by the therapist via the therapist computer interface recommendations relating to the therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient relating to the selected therapist defined therapeutic regimen for the patient.
