    Telehealth Nursing Practice Special Interest Group A Telehealth Manager’s Toolkit Editors: Rocquel Crawley, MBA, BSN, RNC-OB, NEA-BC and Pam Kuchta, MBA, BSN, RNC Introduction R. Crawley, MBA, BSN, RNC-OB, NEA-BC & P. Kuchta, MBA, BSN, RNC-TNP 2011-2012 AAACN TNP SIG Co-Chairs Telehealth is the delivery, management, and coordination of health services that integrate electronic information and telecommunications technologies to increase access, improve outcomes, and contain or reduce costs of health care. Telehealth is an umbrella term used to describe the wide range of services delivered across distances by all health-related disciplines (AAACN, 2011). Telehealth Nursing Practice is the delivery, management, and coordination of care and services provided via telecommunications technology within the domain of ambulatory care nursing. Telehealth nursing is a broad term encompassing practices that incorporate a vast array of telecommunications technologies (e.g., telephone, fax, email, Internet, video monitoring, and interactive videos) to remove time and distance barriers for the delivery of nursing care (Espensen, 2009). Telehealth Nursing Practice (TNP) is recognized as a nursing subspecialty of ambulatory care nursing by the American Academy of Ambulatory Care Nursing (AAACN). AAACN has worked to formalize the practice of Telehealth Nursing by developing a Telehealth Nursing Practice Core Course (TNPCC), the Scope and Standards of Practice for Professional Telehealth Nursing , the Telehealth Nursing Practice Essentials (TNPE) textbook, competencies, and included a chapter on Telehealth Nursing Practice in the C ore Curriculum for Ambulatory Care Nursing . AAACN also offers a TNP track at their annual conference and includes many Telehealth articles in ViewPoint , AAACN’s bi-monthly newsletter.
