Remote Care

Stay connected to your patients and provide convenient, consistent care when it’s needed, without a clinic visit.

Your patient, your care, anywhere

With Remote Care solutions you have the flexibility to deliver quality care without your patients making a trip to the clinic. Remote Care is designed to enhance your clinical practice by combining your expertise with solutions that can help you manage your patient base, time and resources.

With the option of managing patient progress remotely, you could offer care to more patients, including those who may be limited by location, health, mobility, or work and family commitments.

Remote Check

For patients with a compatible Nucleus® or Kanso® Sound Processor*, Remote Check is a virtual assessment tool which helps you monitor their progress remotely and provide care when it’s needed.

Remote Check identifies issues you would look for during a clinic appointment4, helping to triage the patient – are they performing as expected, or do they need follow up?

You choose which patients to enroll in Remote Check and the activities you want them to do. Patients complete the Remote Check at a convenient time and place using the Nucleus Smart App on their compatible* smartphone.

Remote Assist

For patients with a compatible Nucleus, Kanso or Baha® Sound Processor*, Remote Assist can help you provide convenient, real-time care through a scheduled video appointment.

During a Remote Assist session, you have the opportunity to assess how the patient is progressing, discuss any issues they are experiencing and optimise their hearing outcomes. You can also connect remotely to their sound processor to make adjustments.
