The Communication Module is easy to use and works on any Wi-Fi network. This means parents can send their monitored baby's data to clinicians without the need for a Home Care Provider to drive out to their home—saving both families and providers time and money. Data is available to the clinical care team immediately and can be uploaded as often as the care team desires.
