Mater Private Hospital

Cork, Ireland

A small clinical team and constrained resources made it challenging to proactively monitor all patients following their procedures. This resulted in some patients not receiving additional treatments or re-entering the pathway in a worse and more complex condition.

To address this, the clinical team worked with Medtronic Integrated Health Solutions (IHS) to roll out Get Ready®, a digital remote patient management solution for truly connected care. The tool optimizes the entire care pathway, from referral to post-intervention follow-up.

As a result, pain clinic patients at Mater Private Hospital have become key stakeholders in their treatment and are taking a more active role in managing their health.
