Summary
Nurse practitioner (NP) students showed improved confidence and readiness after a telehealth simulation training. This program enhanced their preparation for delivering rural healthcare via telehealth technology.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Digital Health
- Rural Health
Background:
- Telehealth preparation for nurse practitioner (NP) students lacks standardization across educational programs.
- Identified gaps exist in NP students' readiness to utilize telehealth for patient care and managing specific health conditions.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe the development and implementation of a telehealth simulation training.
- To enhance NP students' preparedness for rural practice using telehealth.
Main Methods:
- A telehealth simulation training experience was developed and implemented for NP students.
- Participants from various NP specialties engaged in the simulation.
Main Results:
- The telehealth simulation training significantly improved students' confidence and readiness scores.
- Post-simulation scores demonstrated a statistically significant increase compared to pre-simulation scores.
Conclusions:
- The telehealth simulation training effectively enhanced NP students' knowledge and preparation for rural telehealth delivery.
- This initiative offers a valuable model for integrating telehealth competencies into NP curricula.

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...

There are several characteristics related to delivering nursing care. One vital characteristic of the nursing process is that it can be used to protect nurses and justify the provided care. Productive use of the nursing process requires the knowledge and skills of nurses to assess and solve issues. Nurses should develop and strengthen their critical thinking skills and evidence-based nursing interventions to improve their skills in formulating nursing care plans. A well-defined approach to...

A nursing care plan can present in two forms: informal and formal. Informal is a care plan for the individual use of the nurse and goals they wish to accomplish during their shift. Informal care plans are not included in the patient chart. A formal nursing care plan is a written or computerized guide that organizes patient care. It is further subdivided into two: standardized and individualized care plans. Standardized care plans are pre-populated care plans for specific patient populations,...
