“Tap Telehealth: Real Stories, Real People, Real Results – How a Simple Text Can Change Lives!”
Today, I want to share some stories with you. Not just hypothetical situations, but real stories about real people whose lives have been impacted by Tap Telehealth. I have been working in the medical field for a long time, and honestly, some of the best stories are not the ones that I’ve done in the ER, but they have come from Tap Telehealth and how simple acts of care can have a big impact on someone’s life.
These stories are all true, they are all real, and they all happened because of a simple text message. We’ve changed a lot of lives, and these are just a few examples of what we do every day!
The Close Save: When Every Minute Counts
Let’s start with a story that makes my heart race every time I think about it. A young mom, we’ll call her Sarah, texted us late one night, worried about her daughter who had a cough and a fever. Sarah had not slept well that night and she said that something just did not seem right. She was already using over the counter medications with little to no effect. Based on her description, and some additional questioning, our provider suspected that her child was having a severe asthma flare, and we advised them to head to the ER immediately. It turned out that her daughter was in severe respiratory distress, and needed immediate medical attention, but thanks to Tap Telehealth that little girl got to the right place at the right time, and it all started with a simple text!
The Near Miss: Catching Problems Before They Escalate
Another case that sticks with me is from a gentleman, we’ll call him Tom, who texted us about a small rash that he had. It had been bothering him for a few weeks but he wasn’t sure it needed medical attention. After a quick chat and a photo, our provider suspected it was shingles in its early stages, and we were able to get him on medication that same day. He said that before Tap Telehealth he never would have thought that something simple like a text message could change everything, as he likely would have had a severe case if he had waited to see his PCP in 3 weeks. This was something that, if left untreated, could have gotten significantly worse!
Care Left Too Long: Filling the Gaps
We also had a patient, we’ll call her Maria, who had been struggling with a UTI for a few days. She was scheduled to see her doctor in a few days, but was miserable with symptoms in the meantime. She had started taking over-the-counter medications with little to no effect. She said, “I wish I had contacted you sooner, the relief you provided with that prescription was amazing and I felt so much better than I had the past few days!”. We were able to quickly assess her, send in a low-cost prescription to her pharmacy, and then she was able to feel better the next day. Tap Telehealth was able to bridge that gap, help her with immediate relief, and make sure she could see her PCP feeling better. And all of that happened simply by sending us a text message!
The Money Saver: Smart and Affordable Healthcare
And finally, let’s talk about the financial benefits. We had a single mom, we’ll call her Lisa, contact us because her son had a double ear infection. She told us that she was uninsured, so she normally just takes her kids to the ER because she doesn’t know where else to go. She said, “I was just hoping you could get me an antibiotic and save me a trip to the ER. I know that’s always going to cost me a lot of money, and I just don’t have it.” Our provider quickly assessed her son and sent in an antibiotic prescription to her local pharmacy. She was so relieved, as she was able to get fast, convenient, affordable care, without the added expense of an ER visit. Tap Telehealth really was able to change her situation by giving her access to healthcare at a price she could afford!
