From the reviews:
“In an era of increasingly restrictive health care reimbursement patterns coupled with rapidly changing patient demographics, Telenursing is an important text for readers considering taking part in the development and expansion of this evolving, technology-based model of care delivery. … The strength of this book is the clarity provided by the concise systematic structure the editors have established for the contributors’ chapter submissions. … Clinicians from all disciplines are well advised to understand and participate in the development of both telenursing and telehealth.” (Lisa Wentworth Smith, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 307 (1), January, 2012)
