Remote Presence Services

As an industry innovator, Eagle is actively pursuing solutions that elevate care for patients, while enabling hospitals to enhance value and flexibility. Telemedicine is a prime example of that commitment.

This revolutionary solution empowers physicians to be at the patient’s bedside without having to be on location – a monumental proposition for any hospital suffering from a shortage of physicians and/or increasing patient volume. More than solving a resource challenge, this remote-guided technology, which offers a live feed of the physician at one location and the patient at another, can actually help extend a hospital’s quality of care. For instance, a patient who would otherwise be without access to a specialist (sometimes due to rural area constraints, costs, or if the patient is unable to travel), through telemedicine, may now acquire the prompt expert care they need. It’s especially critical in cases where stroke is suspected and timely diagnosis is necessary to ensure patients a better opportunity for recovery. Telemedicine technology may be used by hospitalists to provide night coverage for smaller practices, as well as expand the reach within Critical Care, TeleNeurology, or Psychiatry units.

Telehospitalists, teleneurologists and other inpatient telespecialists are key to the future of hospital medicine. That’s why Eagle is pioneering this physician service today. Not only do we create exceptional communication tools like this mini-brochure to ensure our patients thoroughly understand and feel comfortable utilizing Telemedicine technology, we support our remote hospitalists and consultants with a proprietary clinical remote presence process that helps to provide an efficient and effective course of action.
