During a visit, medical staff educate the patient on healthy lifestyle choices. With the assistance of medical staff, patients can learn to self-monitor their health. Self-monitoring may include tracking your meals, exercising regularly, and participating in health programs. With the help of technology, patients can now enter and record information on a daily basis, on devices such as tablets and smartphones. Monitoring can also be done by installing equipment in the patient's home. This equipment monitors the patient and takes periodic samples of data from the patient. Additionally, support staff can track the patient's daily activities, from the equipment, via the web.

With the help of technology, patients can now access more information about their disease, treatment and medications. Patients also receive education about the signs and symptoms to report and ways to manage them
