We know…..it feels too early to talk about fall.
But summer travel, vacations, and relaxed routines have a way of knocking chronic care off track. Missed meds, skipped appointments, and diet changes create a ripple effect that doesn’t just disappear when school starts or schedules shift. As summer winds down, now’s the time to reconnect with patients and reset care plans—before small lapses turn into major setbacks. Remote care programs like Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Chronic Care Management (CCM) give you a reliable way to stay connected, keep care consistent, and get ahead of what’s coming.
The Summer Scheduling Shuffle
Many patients and providers took time off this summer. That meant fewer appointments, more reschedules, and disruptions in routine care. Now, a backlog is building.
- Encourage catch-up visits: Prompt patients to rebook any missed or delayed appointments from June to August before fall calendars fill up.
- Automate reminders: Send text or email nudges 48 hours and 2 hours before appointments to reduce no-shows.
- Offer flexible slots: Early-morning and evening telehealth visits help patients get back on track without disrupting work or school.
Remote Monitoring as Routines Shift
As patients move into a new rhythm, new routines, new stressors, Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Chronic Care Management (CCM) keep care consistent without relying on in-office visits.
- Continuous data flow: RPM devices send vital signs like blood pressure or blood sugar straight to a clinician.
- Early alerts: Automated flags detect out-of-range readings before symptoms escalate.
- Proactive outreach: A Nom Care nurse follows up quickly, often before the patient even knows something’s wrong.
A Safety Net for Post-Summer Health
The end of summer often means a shift in habits, more stress, new routines, and lingering effects from a season of indulgence.
- Care coordination: A dedicated Nom Care nurse keeps track of meds, lab orders, and care plans so nothing slips through the cracks.
- Habit coaching: CCM supports better choices by helping patients reestablish healthy eating, hydration, and movement habits.
- Fall-ready check-ins: Weekly calls and messages keep patients accountable, and remind them to log readings, refill meds, and stay engaged.
Beyond the Metrics: Supporting Mental and Emotional Health
The transition from summer to fall isn’t just physical, it affects mental health, too. The structure and pace of fall can be overwhelming for some patients, especially those living alone or managing multiple conditions.
- Regular emotional check-ins: Our US Based Nurse Navigators offer consistency and connection through regular calls and texts.
- Isolation alerts: We pay special attention to elderly or mobility-limited patients who may feel more isolated as summer ends.
- Quick access to resources: We help patients get the support they need by connecting them to trusted community resources and services.
