At White Plains Hospital, we strive to create a healthy environment where everyone receives high-quality care. Through WPH Cares, the hospital's solution to transitions in care, we actively collaborate with community organizations such as the Department of Social Services, Visiting Nurse Services, local pharmacies, and paramedicine teams. These partnerships help build trust and improve access to care.
One example is White Plains Hospital’s Diabetic Remote Monitoring program designed to address diabetes in our community. This program uses remote patient monitoring, continuous glucose monitoring, and care coordination to provide real-time data and support to patients, aiming to reduce A1c levels and improve overall glycemic control.
This program, along with our other quality improvement initiatives, such as our Heart Failure program, ensures that technology and support are accessible. We provide in-home education and setup assistance through our community paramedicine team. These programs help to ensure fair access to healthcare technologies and interventions for all in the community.
