Program Manager - School-Based Telehealth

Overview

Program Manager - School-Based Telehealth

Cone’s School-Based Telehealth program places a clinical telepresenter in the school who can virtually connect the parent / guardian, interpretive services, and a Nurse Practitioner with the child in the school.

The provider uses the Advanced Digital System to examine the child with the parent virtually present. This innovative system called TytoCare allows the provider to triage, examine, diagnose, and treat many medical conditions that would have resulted in early dismissal, absenteeism from school and potentially, a visit to the Emergency Department.

The school-based telehealth program provides :

• A partnership with Guilford County Schools, County Government / Health Department, school nurses and school staff, philanthropic organizations such as Guilford Education Alliance, and Cone Health.
• On demand care
• Point of care testing for respiratory viruses including COVID.
• Coordination of care with school nurses and primary care practices.
• And lessens the impact on families for early dismissals for a health complaint.
