Scientific Article Entitled: Telehealth Capability And Its Potential Options For The Performance Of Health Personnel In The Government Health Sector In The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia

Abstract

While telemedicine has emerged as a primary means of providing allied health services globally, many practitioners lack the necessary skills to provide high-quality telehealth services. The purpose of this research is to determine the abilities needed by allied health professionals to provide telehealth services in an efficient manner. In addition to being a fundamental component of modern nursing education and practice, telehealth and telemedicine also have an impact on health staff practice and quality by promoting positive outcomes, seamless nursing care, and positive experiences through nurse-patient contact. Based on the analysis of these data, three major recommendations were made: further primary studies with a primary focus on telenursing; telehealth training; reskilling healthcare workers (HCWs) in KSA; and incorporating telehealth into the nursing curriculum. Telehealth continues to be a major paradigm shift in nursing practice overall and is a key component of modern nursing practice.
