Description of Invention

This invention intends to integrate telehealth with in-home rehabilitation to reduce health care costs, while improving access and quality of life through self-care routine. Leveraging on the basic digital devices (laptop and webcam), this is a new way to sustain wellness through telehealth by creating a more patient-centric and interconnected platform motivated by personalisation. Our invention provides appointment scheduling that connects patients with their associated doctor/therapist through videoconferencing, and wireless communications. Furthermore, therapist/ doctor is able to customise a personalised home therapy based on the unique lifestyle habits and living environment of the patient, allowing them to have quality care and privacy in a familiar environment.
