My capstone project significantly incorporated technology to strengthen practitioner-client communication and enable self-management of hypertension. My technology incorporation involved telehealth video calls with the patient to continue to assess the progressive state of hypertension. In these video calls, I could easily access and help the patient monitor hypertension by offering advice on medication, exercise, and diet. These video calls significantly reduced the cost of seeking access to health care by the patient, as she did not travel many times to seek my services. At the comfort of Mrs. S.J’s home, I could offer her advice even if we were geographically apart. The questions asked by the client could be answered by me over the telehealth technology. I also used the hospital resource center computers to ensure effective and safe storage of patient data. This data storage effectively ensured I kept track of the intervention practices suggested to her and her family.
