About Us You are here: Home » About Us

Medvivo was formed in January 2013, merging two experienced telehealth and telecare companies. Our innovative products and services help to empower patients and enable them to live safely in their own home for as long as possible.

We are the only company that offers a comprehensive and flexible end-to-end service that includes clinically approved protocols, technical and clinical triage and flexible software. In addition we are able to offer patients both a telehealth and telecare solution – which no other company is able to deliver.

Our range of products and services are simple to use – they enable patients to stay in their home and help increase the knowledge of their long-term condition. They are able to monitor their own key vital signs with the security that a trained clinician is monitoring their condition and will be in touch if they notice deterioration in the patients’ health.

Our pioneering telehealth and telecare solutions are high-quality, low-cost systems available for use in GP surgeries and pharmacies as well as within other institutions, commercial premises and private homes. Telehealth is an emerging health opportunity, which utilises ever-improving technology enabling clinicians to have rapid access to medical data through telecommunications and information technology.

"The introduction of this technology and software has helped to ensure that patients are getting the encouragement and support required to start taking a proactive interest in their health"

Norfolk Case Study
“It gives me security because it’s there, so I know that somebody else, other people are on the outside listening in and looking after me, so it’s good. I’m quite comfortable with my illness now.”

"From the service point of view, Telehealth has freed up time for me to see new referrals quicker both at home and in the clinic setting, thus potentially improving patient care and reducing unnecessary admission to hospital.... ”

Pearl Lesson, Community Heart Failure Specialist Nurse
"Feedback from patients is always positive, the equipment is easy to use and it gives them re-assurance that their condition is being monitored and they are involved in the management of their own care/ condition."

Melanie Abel, Practice Nurse, The Adam Practice
"We don’t enforce the use of the pod, and staff are always on hand to help, but the response has been fantastic with 1,110 patients using it in the first six months. It is also safer than more traditional machines because the results go straight into their record and abnormal results are flagged up."

"The patients love the fact that they can monitor their own BP and if there is a problem the practice will contact the patient so the issues can be dealt with."

“Innovations such as telehealth are going to make an incredible difference to the way our healthcare is shaped over the coming years."

Richard Harrington MP
“One patient called in to report that the blood pressure reading he had just submitted was a little high, which he thought was because he had just finished cleaning the oven. Would I mind telling his nurse that he was going to have a tea break and re-submit his blood pressure, and that there was no need for the nurse to worry”

“The SurgeryPod has transformed our waiting room; patients are really impressed that they can monitor their own weight and BP – it makes them feel in control of their own healthcare."
