Each week, SeamlessMD is highlighting how our platform supports patients and care teams for specific surgical procedures or health conditions.
Our solution uses a patient’s own smartphone, tablet, or desktop computer to guide them with health system-specific, step-by-step guidance via reminders, education and symptom monitoring.
This week’s spotlight: Diabetes Management.
Highlights from the Diabetes Management care journey demo
Daily, Personalized Education
- Patients receive tailored, diabetes-specific education each day to build their knowledge and skills in managing their condition.
- Content covers topics such as what is diabetes, controllable vs. uncontrollable risk factors, the impact of diet, the importance of blood sugar monitoring, and target ranges.
- Education adapts to the patient’s needs. For example, if they indicate they take insulin, they’ll receive guidance on insulin use and injection site rotation with step-by-step instructions.
Bite-Sized To-Do Lists
- Patients receive manageable, task-oriented reminders, such as taking medications, checking blood sugar, or scheduling routine exams like eye and foot checks.
- Each task includes a “learn more” option with detailed explanations, videos, and when-to-call guidelines to support safe self-care.
- Progress bars help patients track their completion and stay motivated.
Comprehensive Education Library
- Patients can access a searchable, evidence-based library covering topics from medications to mental health, foot care, healthy eating, and more.
- Practical guides, such as how to choose low-glycemic foods or read nutrition labels, empower patients to make better daily choices.
- The library is available anytime, so patients can revisit resources as needed.
Symptom & Wellness Monitoring
- The Wellness Check-In captures insights on mental health, physical symptoms, medication side effects, vision and foot health, and lifestyle habits.
- Patients receive tailored recommendations prioritized by urgency – from “call your care team” alerts to self-care tips.
- Progress charts track trends in areas like mood, anxiety, exercise, and weight over time, giving both patients and care teams valuable insights.
Blood Sugar Tracking
- Patients log pre- or post-meal blood sugar levels, along with details about their meals.
- Optional photo uploads enable care teams to see exactly what patients are eating.
- Each entry provides personalized feedback on managing high or low blood sugars, with educational links and when-to-call instructions.
