R. Michael Brown joins ROMTech for marketing and communications. The PortableConnect® is a medical device that delivers clinician-controlled physical therapy sessions to patients in their homes. It’s delivered to your home by a therapy specialist and the patient is trained to use it.
I found out about it when the device was prescribed for my wife by her doctor when she had knee replacement surgery. It was remarkable how fast the device relieved my wife’s pain and helped her recover.
So, I joined the company to help more doctors and patients find out about this amazing telemedicine technology. I’m working part-time.
Wireless Telemedicine at Home
The ROM Technologies, Inc. #PortableConnect enables gentle, therapeutic movement within a comfortable range of motion. Light, easy, and frequent sessions make it easier for the body to heal and recover. The result: patients recover and return to their activities of daily living more quickly, with less pain and drugs, and with better mobility.
The device connects wirelessly [with or without WiFi] so therapists or your doctor can talk to you right on the display screen. Data is sent to the medical team during [real-time] and after your therapy session so adjustments can be made during your care.
The PortableConnect® started out and became the leader in advanced orthopedic rehab technology. Patients recovering from total knee replacement, total hip replacement, joint manipulations, ACL, and other arthroscopic repairs.
But now, cardiac physicians have found out that the device is excellent for heart patients to rehab at home. Only 6% of cardiac patients complete their necessary therapy for many reasons. The at-home technology provided by ROMTech helps heart patients complete their therapy sessions and saves lives.
By enabling patients to complete therapy from the safety and privacy of their homes, our patented telemedicine technology leads to faster outcomes, unparalleled pain management, and a faster return to quality of life.
Medicare, the VA, and over 500 insurance companies will pay for the prescription from your doctor.
This is truly a revolution in providing care to patients at home.
