Abstract

Florence Beatrice

Telehealth has emerged as a transformative force in the landscape of healthcare delivery, particularly in the context of advanced practice nursing. As technology evolves and healthcare needs become increasingly complex, telehealth offers innovative solutions that bridge gaps in access to care, enhance patient outcomes and support healthcare providers in delivering high-quality services. This introduction explores the significance of telehealth in advanced practice nursing, examining how it expands access to care and addresses the challenges of traditional healthcare delivery models. The concept of telehealth encompasses a wide range of technologies and practices that facilitate remote healthcare services, including video consultations, remote monitoring and mobile health applications. By leveraging these technologies, Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) can connect with patients regardless of geographic barriers, ensuring that those in rural or underserved areas receive the care they need. As the demand for healthcare continues to rise particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic telehealth has proven to be a crucial component of the healthcare system.
