Consumer Health: Preparing Nurse Graduates for Telehealth and Informatics
Webinar Details
This presentation will define consumer health, health informatics and nursing informatics and provide discussion of how the consumerization of healthcare is impacting the nurse’s role. This discussion will highlight how nurses need to be prepared to engage and empower patients to be an active participant in their care team. Preparing our future nurses and all clinicians on the current state of informatics, including telehealth and wellness mobile applications is vital to providing our patients the guidance and support needed to navigate the ever-changing health care systems.
