The new ECG machine at GH at Home is helping clinicians deliver faster, safer care closer to home for patients across our region. 💙
Used to record the heart’s electrical activity, the ECG machine enables rapid assessment of patients experiencing symptoms such as chest pain, helping clinicians identify serious heart conditions and make timely decisions about treatment. Having this equipment available within the service means patients can receive important heart assessments without the need for additional hospital visits.
The equipment has quickly become an important part of the GH at Home clinic, supporting clinicians to provide efficient, high-quality care in the community.
"Our beautiful new ECG machine has become an important part of the GH at Home clinic. It allows our clinicians to perform timely heart assessments and make informed decisions about patient care without the need for additional hospital visits. This equipment helps us provide safer, more efficient care closer to home, and we are sincerely grateful to the generous donors who made it possible."
— Jackie Cherry, Team Leader, GH at Home.
