Introducing Telehealth to Pre-licensure Nursing Students

Background Telehealth has emerged as an important tool for healthcare providers. Telehealth concepts are not currently taught in many nursing courses. Purpose Introduce telehealth concepts to pre-licensure nursing students via a learning module and to test its effectiveness using pre and post-tests. Method A two-tailed t test used to analyze the difference between the pre and post-test scores supported the research question: “Is the use of a new telehealth learning module effective in teaching pre-licensure nursing students about telehealth?” Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that demographic variables had no influence on the outcome of either test. Discussion The results of the statistical analysis suggest the module is an effective learning tool. Conclusion Telehealth is becoming a useful tool in caring for patients, especially those with chronic illnesses. Introducing the concepts of telehealth in a nursing curriculum will increase students’ awareness of its use in the nursing field

Introducing Telehealth to Nursing Students in a Pre-Licensure Program

Telehealth has emerged as an enhancement to health care, giving clients greater access to care providers than ever before. It has benefited persons living in remote areas who cannot readily access health services and it has helped clients who have chronic disease conditions that require frequent monitoring, saving themselves and hospitals thousands of dollars. Nurses are an important part of delivering telehealth, yet it is not currently being taught in many nursing courses. The purpose of this project is to introduce telehealth into a pre-licensure nursing program via a learning module and to assess the students\u27 understanding of the material before and after the module has been presented. A two-tailed t test was given before and after the module was presented with p.05, which upheld the null hypothesis that demographic variables would not influence the outcome of either test. The learning module proved to be effective and could have further applications in pre-licensure nursing programs
