Abstract
BackgroundThe onset of COVID-19 perpetuated the necessity for nursing students to be telehealth savvy upon graduation. There is minimal research regarding the integration of telehealth in nursing curricula across multiple levels.PurposeThe purpose of this survey study was to determine the current or future use of telehealth content and experiences in prelicensure and graduate nursing program curricula.MethodsFollowing vetting, an adapted survey was sent to 386 nursing program or simulation directors in June 2020.FindingsThe survey had a 21 % (n = 82) response rate. Fifty-five percent of prelicensure and 40 % of graduate programs had no telehealth curricular content, while 22 % and 45 %, respectively, planned to integrate. The top barrier to integration was a lack of funds.DiscussionFurther research is needed to evaluate telehealth in nursing curricula. Due to many factors, the addition of telehealth curricula in nursing schools is inevitable.
