“Our mission is to provide superior home care and to ensure the
satisfaction of each person we serve. As a leading home care

to communicate with an At Home Healthcare nurse. The Commander Home
Telehealth System guides the patient through an interactive
Health Check that includes the collection of symptoms, care plan
compliance, and vital signs such as weight, blood pressure, oxygen
saturation and heart rate. This information is immediately
transmitted over a standard phone line or a cellular signal to the
patient’s nurse for review.
“The Cardiocom System is a key tool that proactively ensures
coordinated care from a hospital, nursing home or clinic to the
patient’s home,” adds Beverly Bowman, Director of Medicare, At Home
Healthcare. “This telemonitoring system will improve the quality of
care for our patients.”
