Telehealth Education of Nurse Practitioner Students

Telehealth is rapidly becoming a viable mode of health care delivery. Telehealth education of nurse practitioners (NPs) is recommended during their academic careers to increase confidence in the use of this technology. On the basis of competencies developed by the National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculties and using the Multimodal Framework as a guide, telehealth was integrated into an NP curriculum. This article provides a high-level overview of the structure, process, and outcomes of how telehealth was integrated into an NP program of study, inclusive of didactic, experiential, and clinical components.
