Optimized Acute Care for Geriatric Patients Using an Intersectoral Telemedical Cooperation Network - Around the Clock

The nursing homes participating in the project will be equipped with telemedical equipment. This will allow teleconsultations to take place when needed. In addition, an early warning system will be introduced and, within the framework of the teleconsultation, a trained medical assistant can be sent to the care facility if necessary, who can carry out medical activities on site under a physician's delegated instructions. In addition, an electronic patient file will be introduced which can be accessed by the telemedicine physician and the general practitioner.
