Sadly, these initiatives should be in addition to onsite health care, not a replacement. They cannot address the person to person relationship between an onsite caregiver and patient, so important to better compliance and outcomes. They won’t help the emergent, be that the massive stroke patient, the OB patient with complications, the acute MI and on and on. There is no sense of community necessary for a quality life. The art of medicine, the real basis for holistic care, is completely lost. I am a big believer in all of these tools as adjunct additions. But it will never be medical CARE. It is nothing short of discriminatory. It surely doesn’t represent the possibilities for a nation that can rise to the top, become leaders and set a standard. It’s a reaction built on profits for one sector and loss of humanity for the rest.
I agree … these are simply tools to facilitate delivery of the human care, compassion, humility, and trust. Human being physician and nurses are the driving force and core.
Agree that these initiatives will never replace person to person medical care. They can and will be used to initiate medical directives for those in these rural areas!
