Due to the successful implementation of the COVID-19 Positive Pathways Program, Doctor in My Pocket is now expanding their Telehealth service to respond to the needs of the North Western suburbs of Melbourne. Because of this, Doctor in My Pocket will be consulting via Telehealth COVID-19 positive patients from North Western Health, Northern Health and cohealth. This is in addition to our existing community health providers, Monash Health, SEMPHN, Central Bayside Community Health and Alfred Health.
The program ensures clients who are at risk of deteriorating are identified early and are transitioned to higher levels of care. So far we have supported over 300 patients since the 16th of September.
Thank you to our call centre staff who have assisted with registrations and booking appointments, and our network of local Atticus Health Doctors who have been working tirelessly to support patients while they’re living with COVID-19.
You can read more about the program in our previous article.
Watch the video below to see how our Doctor in My Pocket staff are working to provide care to these patients.
