Care Plan Management
Descripción general
Care plans (referred to as "Plans" in vitalera) are the central organizing structure for remote patient monitoring. A care plan defines what activities patients should perform, what devices they should use, what alarm thresholds apply, and which professionals are responsible for their care.
