Genesis is Honeywell HomMed’s newest, streamlined monitor that measures heart rate, blood pressure, weight and asks subjective disease-related questions to provide a more complete picture of the individual’s health. It automatically prompts in-home users when it’s time to take their vital signs through voice or text communication, and it can accommodate multiple medical peripherals such as a glucose meter or PT/INR device.

The Genesis telehealth monitor allows clinicians to focus on a particular disease state; it’s extremely compact (weighing less than two pounds); it comes with a scale, blood pressure cuff, and oxygen sensor, and data is transmitted via phone line. Genesis is a fast, cost-efficient solution for meeting the individual needs of patients and their caregivers and is a FDA Class II hospital grade medical device.
