About this course

How can telehealth expand healthcare access to our patients? What are ways we can leverage telehealth to better help our patients? In this short introductory course, you’ll receive an introduction to telehealth basics geared toward any healthcare professional or student who has patient-facing clinical responsibilities. We’ll first begin with how you can set yourself, your team, and your patients up for success by using practical tips to ensure success before, during, and after telehealth video appointments. We’ll then discuss general telehealth assessments, focusing on how to work with your patients to assess their vital signs and cognitive function as well as how you can complete a virtual environmental assessment.
