Abstract

Telehealth has become ubiquitous, and advanced practice nurses will need to be proficient in its use. Recent literature has shown that graduate nursing curricula may not fully prepare students for clinical telehealth practice. This article describes an interactive, module-based course that was built using instructional design principles for the training of graduate nursing students to prepare them to conduct telehealth encounters. The course was proven to be efficacious based on pre-post test results and critical reflections. The blueprint described can be used by nurse educators and administrators to prepare nurses to provide safe and effective telehealth services.
