A patient of your choice is being discharged to home and will use
telehealth technology. Post the technology your patient will use
at home and how will you connect with the patient using this
technology.
, Nearly10% of all babies born in the United States are
delivered prematurely, and many of these babies are
transported from lower levels of care to a neonatal
intensive care unit with the capability of providing
necessary services and support (Umoren, Gray, Schooley,
Billimonia, Smith, & Sawyer, 2018). Neonatal transport
teams stabilize newborns for transport, with access to a
medical control physician (MCP) by telephone or video-
based telemedicine. Compared with telephone
consultation, video based telemedicine has been shown
to improve the quality of care and decrease state wide
infant mortality rates (Umoren, Gray, Schooley,
Billimonia, Smith, & Sawyer, 2018). Although there are
high satisfaction rates with telemedicine after
implementation, individual providers may be initially
reluctant to adopt new technologies Simulation training in
telemedicine for MCPs has not been described and may
