Telehealth for Pregnant Women With Opioid Use Disorder: A Theory-Based Approach
Pregnant women with opioid use disorder (OUD) face barriers to receiving substance use treatment and prenatal care, which can lead to adverse health outcomes. The purpose of the current article is to inform practice through the design of an innovative, nurse-led approach derived from King's Theory of Goal Attainment to care for pregnant women with OUD using telehealth technologies. The practice model encompasses King's theory using telehealth by addressing perceptions in the nurse-client interaction, establishing effective communication in nurse-client interactions, building mutual goal setting and decision making, and promoting clients' goal attainment using nurses' knowledge and skills. This theory-based approach using telehealth technologies can provide nurses the opportunity to increase effectiveness in nurse-client interactions, use evidence-based communication strategies for expanded access, and deliver safe care for pregnant women with OUD. [Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services, 58(12), 13-20.].
