Episode Description
Your Health System CXO Podcast host Anne Herleth brings a very special episode about Virtual Nursing. Virtual nursing is a solution that is gaining popularity in the healthcare industry. It involves a virtual nurse overseeing or supporting care delivery by a bedside team. Virtual nursing is not outpatient telehealth or behavioral coaching, but rather a way to enhance the work of bedside nurses.
