Distributed health care uses personal support workers (PSW) and registered, trained medical personnel. Each PSW is equipped with a mobile computing device that is capable of communicating with a main computer. Each registered medical personnel is equipped with a computing device (a monitoring computer) that is capable of communicating with a main computer. At times during a PSW's shift at a patient location, the PSW inputs data to a number of forms on the mobile computing device, each form being related to the patient's physical appearance, medical condition, medication taken or given, and physical parameters, or other actions taken. The data inputted are then transmitted to the main computer, which processes, stores, and archives the data. After processing, the data is reviewed by the registered medical personnel. If the data indicates that actions need to be taken, the medical personnel can issue instructions to the PSW. |
