Telehealth

Telehealth is a statewide program with sixty-five county health departments equipped with telehealth carts.  Collaborating with fifteen healthcare agencies, ADPH staff facilitate services such as nephrology, neurology, cardiology, behavioral health, genetic counseling, maternal-fetal medicine, HIV/AIDS, and diabetes education.  The Telehealth equipment is also utilized by ADPH staff for meetings and training events.

The Telehealth office manages several grants that provide for the deployment of the carts and specialty equipment, and funding for county health department staff, primarily nurses and social workers who are trained as “telepresenters,” to operate the equipment during the telehealth appointments.  ADPH continues to improve and increase the usage opportunities of the telehealth carts with new equipment such as new Bluetooth stethoscopes and other peripheral devices.
