-
Can any company or organization purchase a careveo cabin?
The acquisition of a Careveo teleconsultation booth (also known as a connected medical kiosk) assumes that the company or organization has the minimum conditions necessary for its proper operation.

The presence of a nurse or healthcare professional is required to help users take vital parameters (ECG, blood pressure, temperature, etc.) and guarantee the quality of the data collected.
For facilities that do not yet have these requirements, Careveo offers an alternative turnkey solution:
