The company connects residents with a team of experienced clinicians, including psychologists, nurse practitioners, psychiatrists, and clinical social workers, through advanced televideo technology. This allows residents who may not have access to specialized care to receive the support they need from the comfort of their facilities. What sets MediTelecare apart from its competitors is its focus on the elderly population and the commitment of its clinicians to make a positive impact in their lives, all while working remotely. The goal of MediTelecare is to ensure that elderly residents receive high-quality mental health care, regardless of their physical location.
