Abstract
Telehealth allows for realistic, problem-based scenarios to enhance students’ clinical reasoning and problem-solving skills. Medical-surgical II and mental health faculty collaborated on a telehealth learning activity for second-semester prelicensure nursing students. The activity assessed students’ (N = 596) ability to recognize the relationship between courses when caring for patients and evaluated the effectiveness of standardized patient telehealth compared to traditional simulation and clinical experiences. Most students (90%) stated the telehealth activity effectively bridged concepts between courses, and 82% found it more advantageous than traditional methods. Telehealth prepares students for the evolving health care setting.
