Telehealth testimonials
This section features anecdotes, descriptions and testimonials from across Europe and beyond where telehealth interventions have made a positive difference in the lives of real people. The descriptions come principally from material collected by the Campaign for Telehealth in support of Integrated Care, an initiative of Brussels-based organisations started in 2011.
