About Course
Telemedicine and Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) are transforming the way healthcare is delivered by enabling patients to receive medical care without visiting a clinic or hospital. Telemedicine uses digital communication tools—such as video calls and secure messaging—to connect patients with healthcare providers, while RPM involves the use of connected devices to collect and transmit health data (like blood pressure or glucose levels) from a patient’s home to their care team. Together, these technologies support timely interventions, improve access to care, and enhance patient outcomes—especially for those with chronic conditions or limited mobility.
This physiotherapy CPD course provides an in-depth understanding of telemedicine and remote patient monitoring, covering the principles, technologies, benefits, challenges, and future trends. Students will gain hands-on experience with telehealth systems and explore real-world case studies to understand the impact on healthcare delivery.
