Ask HN: My mom is a pediatrician. Best temporary remote consultation ideas?
She obviously won't be able to diagnose a lot of conditions without being close and in contact with her patients, but I believe a lot can still be done remotely. For some children, she might have to give prescriptions, which she currently does on a piece of paper only.
She has a secretary that can help juggling the video conferences.
Any ideas how she can handle her daily work?
Here's my current approach:
- 2 links that open distinct Zoom calls. - Secretary calls patient, somehow asks them to load a webpage (a short url service or sms or email) - Patient joins one of the links, consultation starts - Meanwhile, secretary calls next patient, asks them to load second link and wait - Once the first consultation is over, my mom joins the second link one, and secretary is calling for the next patient in line - Prescriptions are written and either mailed or parents can pick up at her office (maybe on a plastic bag?)
I use Zoom at work but I know how to setup things. Her clients would probably rely on their mobile apps. If it matters, she's from Brazil and we need clients localized to pt-BR.
Thanks for any insights!
