High-intensity telemedicine-enhanced acute care for older adults: an innovative healthcare delivery model.
This article describes an innovative healthcare model that uses high-intensity telemedicine services to provide rapid acute care for older adults without requiring them to leave their senior living community (SLC) residences. The project demonstrated that high-intensity telemedicine services for acute illnesses are feasible and acceptable and can provide definitive care without requiring ED or urgent care use.

A qualitative evaluation of a telemedicine-enhanced emergency care program for older adults.
The purpose of this study was to document the experiences of patients, their caregivers, healthcare personnel, and staff members with a program that provides telemedicine-enhanced emergency care to older adults residing in senior living communities (SLCs) and to delineate perceived barriers and facilitators. The authors concluded that telemedicine-enhanced emergency care is an acceptable method of providing emergency care to older adults in SLCs.
