New York, New York\u00a0 PRWeb – <\/b>CareSpan\u00ae USA, developer of the CareSpan\u00ae Integrated Digital Care Platform\u00a0 has developed and launched a screening-and-response program for individuals concerned that they may have contracted the new coronavirus and COVID-19.\u00a0 The CareSpan\u00ae COVID-19 Screening-and-Response (S&R) Program was designed with input from physicians, nurse practitioners and doctors-of-public-health to enable risk assessment and counseling of anyone concerned about the new coronavirus disease, regardless of location. The first clinicians using the CareSpan\u00ae COVID-19 S&R Program are members of American-APN, a multi-state network of nurse practitioners using the CareSpan\u00ae Clinic platform for care delivery.\u00a0 Likewise, Global Health, the occupational medicine arm of Houston Area Safety Council is offering the COVID-19 S&R Program to its industrial employer clientele for screening of workers in the energy, refining, chemical and construction sectors.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe current COVID-19 pandemic presents a challenge to state and local governments and the medical community at large to provide a safe, easily accessible method through which concerned individuals may take a first step, to be screened to determine if they are currently appropriate for COVID-19 testing,\u201d stated Dr. Terry Knapp, CareSpan\u00ae Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Knapp added, \u201cHealth departments, emergency rooms and doctors\u2019 offices can be relieved of the burden of evaluating large numbers of anxious patients for indications for testing and self-care instructions. Policy makers can receive the information they need to support crucial decisions and the real-time data needed to evaluate results.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The CareSpan\u00ae COVID-19 S&R Program puts each patient in video contact with a qualified health professional, establishes a record for each person, uses data coupled with direct observation to assess each person\u2019s risk and susceptibility profile, then guides that person to testing and care as indicated. It also establishes a follow-up opportunity for continuity-of-care to all screened persons should that be necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe current Coronavirus crisis understandably generates fear and concern among individuals and families.\u00a0The CareSpan\u00ae COVID-19 S&R program\u00a0 provides the potential for an early and orderly assessment of symptoms and recommended responses for all Americans, and is meant to augment and support control and containment measures being implemented by public and private sector leadership in the U.S., \u201d noted Rembert De Vila, CareSpan\u00ae\u2019s Chief Executive Officer. De Villa concluded, \u201cCareSpan\u00ae is committed to contribute to this global COVID-19 fight.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
