Global Data Systems Helping Healthcare Industry During The Covid-19 Pandemic With Secure “Remote Telemedicine” IT Solutions
GDS is known for its quality collaboration and secure connectivity services allowing communications anytime, anywhere
Lafayette, LA, March 31, 2020 – Global Data Systems, a leading managed service provider, announced today that it is providing secure “remote telemedicine” IT solutions to the healthcare industry during the COVID-19 pandemic. GDS is considered an essential business provider as it continues to provide critical services to Healthcare, Oil & Gas and Government, including secure connectivity and collaboration solutions.
The healthcare industry continues to play a crucial part in helping patients get the proper care needed to overcome this illness. With another 30 days added to the “stay at home” instructions by President Trump, healthcare organizations need a means of reducing visits to the doctor’s office and emergency room. Cloud-based video conferencing tools can enable a telemedicine approach through virtual office visits and consultations, minimizing the risk that an infected patient will expose others to the virus.
“Telemedicine is bridging the gap between patients and healthcare professionals during this crisis,” said Chris Vincent, President of Global Data Systems. “It is the ultimate tool to help reduce the spread of the virus while still providing a personal interaction with the healthcare provider. It promotes safety for both the patient and the medical staff.”
As experts in secure remote telemedicine solutions, GDS is helping to enable the healthcare industry to securely:
- Screen patients remotely rather than having them visit the practice or hospital
- Triage patients with other cold and flu-like symptoms, reducing patient risk of being infected with COVID-19
- Provide routine care for patients at high risk if exposed to the virus
- Protect medical staff from virus exposure so they are available to treat other patients when needed most
