The Impact of Telehealth on Patient Care and Nursing Practices

Project Abstract

Telehealth, the utilization of telecommunications technology to deliver healthcare services remotely, has been rapidly evolving in recent years, offering new opportunities to enhance patient care and nursing practices. This research aims to explore the impact of telehealth on patient care and nursing practices, examining the benefits, challenges, and implications associated with its implementation. The study will involve a comprehensive literature review to establish the current state of telehealth adoption in nursing practice and identify key trends and findings in the field. Furthermore, the research methodology will involve qualitative interviews with healthcare professionals, including nurses and patients, to gather firsthand insights on the experiences and perspectives regarding the use of telehealth in patient care. The data collected will be analyzed using thematic analysis to identify common themes and patterns related to the impact of telehealth on patient care and nursing practices. The discussion of findings will delve into the implications of telehealth on healthcare delivery, patient outcomes, nursing roles, and the overall quality of care. The study will conclude with a summary of key findings, implications for practice, and recommendations for future research and implementation of telehealth in nursing settings. Ultimately, this research aims to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on telehealth and its transformative potential in improving patient care and nursing practices.
