Telehealth

  Telehealth is an integral part of our healthcare system and becoming more prominent. Being comfortable with multiple platforms is a must for the PMHNP. Discuss the specific questions in your initial post: Part 1: Nurses, in general, are seeing telehealth increase. When might telehealth be preferred over an in-person medical visit and why? Part 2: As healthcare incorporates various mobile health applications, describe how mHealth (mobile health) is different from telehealth? How should we adjust healthcare due to mobile access by patients? Part 3: As a PMHNP, what clients would best be suited for telehealth visits, and which would you rule out from seeing in telehealth and require in-person and why? Responses need to address all components of the question, demonstrate critical thinking and analysis, and include peer-reviewed journal evidence to support the student’s position.
