\nTask Summary
\nFor this assessment, you are required to write a report (1800 words) which discusses and critically analyses a patient-facing digital technology platform with reference to evidence-based practice. Patient-facing digital technology or patient technology refers to any technology in which patients interact with to partake in health care or clinical activities, such as monitoring disease progression and adhering to treatment regimens (Polhemus et al., 2019). Please refer to the Task Instructions for details on how to complete this task.
\nContext

A report on the use of patient-facing technology platforms to improve self-management through education, remote monitoring, remote support, and treatment adherence.<\/p>\n
How does patient-facing technology platform improve self-management through education, remote monitoring, remote support, and\/or treatment adherence?<\/p>\n
Patient-facing technology platforms can improve self-management in a number of ways. First, they can provide patients with access to educational resources about their condition. This can help patients to understand their condition better and to make informed decisions about their treatment. Second, patient-facing technology platforms can be used to monitor patients’ health remotely. This can help patients to track their symptoms and to identify any potential problems early on. Third, patient-facing technology platforms can provide patients with remote support from healthcare professionals. This can help patients to stay on track with their treatment and to cope with the challenges of living with a chronic condition. Finally, patient-facing technology platforms can be used to improve treatment adherence. This can help patients to take their medications as prescribed and to follow their treatment plan.<\/p>\n
How does patient-facing technology platform tackle areas of high need that are unmet by traditional approaches?<\/p>\n
Patient-facing technology platforms can tackle areas of high need that are unmet by traditional approaches in a number of ways. First, they can provide access to healthcare services to people who live in rural or underserved areas. Second, they can provide access to healthcare services to people who have difficulty accessing traditional healthcare services, such as people with disabilities or people who live in poverty. Third, they can provide access to healthcare services to people who are reluctant to seek out traditional healthcare services, such as people with mental health conditions.<\/p>\n
How does patient-facing technology platform shift the balance of power and transform the therapeutic relationship between the patient\/client and your health care profession?<\/p>\n
Patient-facing technology platforms can shift the balance of power and transform the therapeutic relationship between the patient\/client and your health care profession in a number of ways. First, they can give patients more control over their healthcare. Second, they can help patients to feel more empowered and more involved in their own care. Third, they can help patients to build stronger relationships with their healthcare providers.<\/p>\n
Is patient safety and information security assured via this technology platform?<\/p>\n
Patient safety and information security can be assured via patient-facing technology platforms if the platforms are designed and implemented with security in mind. Some of the things that can be done to ensure patient safety and information security include:<\/p>\n
Using strong encryption to protect patient data
\nImplementing access controls to limit who has access to patient data
\nRegularly monitoring patient data for signs of unauthorized access or use
\nEducating patients about how to protect their own privacy and security<\/p>\n
What equity issues regarding access does this patient-facing technology platform raise?<\/p>\n
Patient-facing technology platforms can raise equity issues regarding access in a number of ways. First, they can be expensive, which can make them inaccessible to people who cannot afford them. Second, they can require access to the internet, which can be difficult for people who live in rural or underserved areas. Third, they can require a certain level of literacy and technical skills, which can make them inaccessible to people who do not have these skills.<\/p>\n
What is the role regarding this patient-facing technology platform?<\/p>\n
The role of the healthcare professional regarding patient-facing technology platforms is to:<\/p>\n
Educate patients about the benefits and risks of using these platforms
\nHelp patients to choose the right platform for their needs
\nProvide support to patients who are using these platforms
\nMonitor patient data for signs of problems
\nReport any problems to the platform developer<\/p>\n
Conclusion<\/p>\n
Patient-facing technology platforms have the potential to improve self-management, tackle areas of high need, shift the balance of power, and improve patient safety and information security. However, it is important to be aware of the equity issues that can arise with these platforms. Healthcare professionals play an important role in educating patients about the benefits and risks of using these platforms and in providing support to patients who are using them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
