The cold weather and impending winter brings lots of exciting events. The holidays, community and school events, crowds of people and of course….illness.
Working in an elementary school I see ALL of the illnesses that are going on in my community. School Nurses, like myself, have strong immune system. Unfortunately I can’t say the same about my own kids. Who usually end up sick during the holiday season.
Luckily there’s a great option for families that want a Doctor or providers’ advice from home – Amwell.
Amwell offers Doctors and Therapist appointments online, 24/7. It’s so easy and convenient! I know when my kids are sick, it’s SO hard to get them out of bed, in a car and to a Doctor’s office. Feeling miserable and sick! Not only do they feel horrible, they are now exposed to all the other germs that are out there, as well as exposing others to their germs. The sickness cycle continues with another family, and so on and so fourth.
To use Amwell, you need a computer, tablet or smart phone.
The average wait is 5-10 minutes, and you can pick the provider you’d like to see.
There are options for pediatrics, family providers, Doctors, mid level providers and more.
Once you choose your provider you are connected within minutes to talk about your illness or your child’s illness. You can discuss the reason for the call (note they do offer psychiatric services which is a huge plus! Mental health is so important). Your provider will discuss symptoms, health history etc, just like a in-person doctor visit. They can also prescribe a prescription to be sent to any pharmacy of your choice. It’s overall the best invention for health and medicine! I’m loving it!.
