Abstract

The rapid expansion of the use of telehealth in the United States due to the pandemic has accelerated the need for CNS to demonstrate new  additional competencies. Understanding the use of this new technology in clinical practice will include demonstrating the skills needed to incorporate telehealth into the healthcare system or facility where they work. Competencies in telehealth need to include increased knowledge of computer systems, and also how to ensure patient safety and satisfaction with quality of care. The Telehealth Workgroup of the NACNS Professional Development Committee was formed to develop a position statement on CNS Telehealth Competencies and ensure that CNS are ready to be leaders in the use of new technology in healthcare.
