Abstract

A national call to explore strategies to increase the number of community and public health nurses exists. During COVID-19, the use of simulated telehealth technology surged within academia. Incorporation of simulated telehealth technology in the curriculum of prelicensure nursing programs can be one pathway to increase the nursing workforce. The 22-item Scoping Review Checklist (SRC) process was followed to conduct a scoping review of the use of simulated telehealth technology in prelicensure nursing education within the past 10 years. MeSH terms (PubMed) of telemedicine and telenursing were used to conduct a broad search. Additionally, searches with CINAHL, EBSCO, Medline, Embase, ProQuest, Cochrane, ERIC, and Nursing and Allied Health databases with diverse subject headings were used. A total of 10 articles met the selection and inclusion criteria. Literature missing a clearly identifiable telehealth strategy and lacking specific research designs or data collection processes was evident. While emerging, this scoping review revealed a scarcity of research focused on the use of simulated telehealth technology in prelicensure nursing education.
