Visiting Health Services of N.J., Inc. has partnered with Honeywell HomeMed and their Health Monitoring system to help individuals lead a healthy life. We can help decrease the chance of something unexpected happening.  It’s the difference between knowing … and wondering. Time spent with loved ones, watching grandchildren grow-up and simply enjoying life is important to all of us.  And like our health, we grow to appreciate them more and more as we age. But unfortunately, health can take a turn for the worse at any time and can lead to loss of independence, hospitalization or a stay at a nursing home.  That’s why daily health status monitoring is important – it can help to identify even slight changes and prevent the condition from escalating into something serious.                                                                                            

What Happens After I Send My Health Data?

Once collected, health status information is automatically and securely sent to our office.  A nurse reviews the health information daily and calls if any of the data falls outside of parameters your doctor sets. We’ll also call if we don’t receive the data.  And we’ll contact the appropriate physician if further intervention might be required. 

What Does It Cost?

There is no cost to Medicare eligible patients who are referred to us for home healthcare services and meet the selection criteria.  Other individuals have the option of being monitored at a nominal fee. We’ll help you or your loved one determine if the eligibility requirements apply.    

THE HONEYWELL HOM MED 

The Honeywell HomMed Health Monitoring System is  an FDA Class II, Hospital Grade Medical Device.   

How Does the Health Monitoring System Work?    

The monitor is extremely easy to use. One of our nurses will bring the monitor to the home, set it up and demonstrate how easy it is to use.  The monitor is about the size of a clock radio and can easily fit on a bedside table.  At a present time the monitor guides the user through the process of collecting their vital signs.  It takes less than 3 minutes.   The monitor measures weight, blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen levels. Additional medical peripheral devices can be added to help monitor specific health conditions.
