Victoria's Bendigo Health is rolling out a telemonitoring solution built on Siemens Healthineers' teamplay myCare Companion platform to care for suspected COVID-19 patients at home.

The solution, which includes symptom tracking and monitoring devices and which can alert clinicians that the patient is deteriorating, is also being deployed for people with chronic disease who are at high risk and residents of aged care facilities to try to avoid the need for hospital admission.
