Enhancing Neurological Care with Remote Monitoring
Background
Neurological disorders pose significant challenges to patients and healthcare providers due to the complex and variable nature of symptoms. Traditional in-person visits for neurological assessments can be time-consuming, costly, and often inaccessible for patients with mobility limitations. BeCare Link seeks to bridge this gap by providing a solution for remote neurological monitoring, enabling patients to manage their health from the comfort of their homes.Neurological disorders pose significant challenges to patients and healthcare providers due to the complex and variable nature of symptoms.
