- Press Item | Salem Hospital | Mass General Brigham
- We are extremely excited to introduce the Home Hospital program, which will revolutionize the healthcare journey for many patients at Salem Hospital,” said president and chief operating officer Roxanne Ruppel. “Delivering top-notch care to patients in the comfort of their homes demonstrates our commitment to innovative, patient-centered care, that also reduces costs.” All of this is supported by a 24/7 continuous remote patient monitoring platform that transmits a patient’s vital sign readings to their clinicians as well as a two-way text and video communication pathway that ensures continual access to a patient’s clinical team. According to research led by Dr. David Levine, clinical director of research and development at Mass General Brigham Healthcare at Home, providing care at home results in improved quality outcomes, enhanced patient and employee experiences, and increased capacity and access to inpatient care. Being able to have that kind of vantage point, you can ensure greater health and safety of a patient as you’re tailoring their care plan to their personal environment,” said Dr. Stephen Dorner, chief clinical and innovation officer for Mass General Brigham Healthcare at Home. Growing the Home Hospital will continue to be a strategic priority for Mass General Brigham as it exemplifies the value of well-integrated and patient-focused care.
