Interactive patient care

Imagine you go to the doctor's office or hospital, and there is a computer screen that you can use to tell your doctor how you are feeling. This is called interactive patient care.

When you use the computer screen, you can answer questions about your health and symptoms, and the computer sends that information to your doctor. Your doctor can then use that information to help figure out what is wrong and how to make you feel better.

Interactive patient care can also help you learn more about your health by showing you pictures, videos, and information about your condition. You may also be able to use the computer to keep track of your medications and appointments.

Overall, interactive patient care helps you communicate better with your doctors and take an active role in your healthcare.
