This system links the patient, usually with chronic diseases or diseases or disabilities, to the healthcare provider based in a hospital or clinic. Non invasive sensors are applied directly to the body to monitor vital signs of the patient. These sensors will automatically detect serious situations and send alarms to a remote control centers. The principle used is somewhat similar to telemetry in critical care systems where distance is exaggerated and where patient nurse interaction is possible. Interactive communication between the patient and the nurse can be facilitated with the inclusion of a microphone, speaker, a monitor display and video camera supported with long flexible arm for catching images of hard-to-reach areas in the body. Showing of progress in healing of wounds,burns of fractures can be displayed online to the nurse for assessment. The client can do simple surgical procedures as instructed on line and as being watched by the nurse or other healthcare provider on the other end .
