Avel eCare School Health assists schools by providing safe, cost-effective care for students via telemedicine. Avel eCare’s advanced two-way video technology and specialized equipment connects students and school staff to an experienced registered nurse within 5 minutes.

Avel eCare School Health nurses can:

• Care for students with unscheduled, urgent health care needs due to injury or illness
• Design school health programs and provide education to help maintain a safe environment and minimize health-related barriers to students’ ability to learn
• Develop emergency health plans
• Guide care for students with chronic or complex health conditions such as asthma, diabetes, life-threatening allergies and seizures
• Offer medical advice for 504 and Individual Education Program (IEP) plans
• Provide back-up care when a school nurse isn’t available on-site
• Refer students to providers and connect families with local resources
• Support case management and serve as a point of contact for medication refills, side effects, order changes, nursing care to be provided at school, mental health needs, etc.

How it Works

1. A student experiences an injury, illness or needs assistance with a health condition such as diabetes, asthma, etc.
2. The designated school staff contacts Avel eCare School Health and requests a two-way video session
3. An Avel eCare School Health nurse completes a health care assessment of the student through advanced video technology and advises staff member on how to help the student
4. The staff member may be asked by the Avel eCare School Health nurse to use medical peripherals attached to the mobile cart, such as an otoscope
5. If needed, the Avel eCare School Health nurse contacts the student’s parents to communicate information about the visit or a need for further follow-up care
