ABSTRACT
Videoconferencing is increasingly being accepted as a medium for health-care. Telenursing is in its infancy in Australia but has enormous potential for nursing care in remote areas. The Child and Adolescent Psychological Telemedicine Outreach Service (CAPTOS) began in 1997 and in its first evaluation recommended more support for paediatric nurses. CAPTOS telenursing began as a new initiative in late 2001. The telenursing project aims to link ward nurses to CAPTOS and local community teams, and to provide both clinical consultancy on nursing and interdisciplinary issues and locally based professional development Telenursing supports nurses via site visits, videoconferencing sessions, an interactive Website and sabbatical opportunities. Telehealth works with existing services to enhance the nursing care of young people with a complex mixture of psychological and physical health problems.
