Patient-Centered Disease Management at Sigma Home Health

What Is Patient Self-Management— and Why Does It Matter?

Living with a chronic disease can be physically and emotionally draining. That’s why patient self-management is at the core of our approach. It means giving you the ability and confidence to:

  • Track your vital signs and symptoms daily
  • Understand what those numbers mean for your health.
  • Follow personalized care plans designed by our clinicians.
  • Take proactive steps to avoid complications.
  • Stay in constant connection with your care team through remote tools.

Self-management empowers patients to take ownership of their health while still receiving timely, professional support from our staff. And thanks to technology like Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and telehealth, you no longer have to wait for the next doctor’s visit to make meaningful progress.

How Sigma Enhances Your SelfManagement Journey

1. Real-Time Remote Monitoring for Better Control

With Sigma’s support, you’ll receive easy-to-use monitoring devices such as:

  • Blood pressure cuffs
  • Blood glucose meters
  • Pulse oximeters
  • Weight scales

These tools wirelessly transmit your readings directly to your Sigma care team, who keep a close eye on trends and intervene when needed. If a reading is too high or low, we respond fast, often before you even feel symptoms.

2. Personalized Telehealth Visits That Feel Like Home

Forget the hassle of travel or waiting rooms. Our HIPAA-compliant video and phone appointments are designed to feel just like an in-person conversation. Whether it’s a scheduled check-in or a symptom review, you’ll always speak with someone who knows your health history and goals.

During these visits, we:

  • Review your recent readings
  • Adjust medications or lifestyle goals if needed.
  • Address concerns in real-time.
  • Provide answers and encouragement.

  • Interactive patient education modules
  • Visual guides on how to use your monitoring tools
  • Checklists for medication schedules
  • Nutrition and activity resources tailored to your condition

The more you know about your condition, the better you can manage it daily. Our team ensures you get the right information at the right time—and in a format that works for you (text, video, or audio).

You don’t just get a nurse—you get a health partner who understands what it takes to make change stick.

  • Telephonic outreach for missed readings or concerning trends.

When something’s off, you won’t have to chase down care—we’re already reaching out to you.
