Résumé

The national nursing shortage is affecting hospital leaders in their ability to employ nursing staff. Nursing staffing shortages contribute to extended nurse-to-patient ratios and increased workload for staff. Increased workload contributes to missed nursing care and correlates with increased patient length of stay, readmission rates, patient safety errors, and hospital-acquired infections. Telehealth services have shown initial improvements in care quality outcomes but have not addressed nursing workload or nursing shortages. Telenursing has potential to provide additional nursing support to offset the workloads of bedside nursing staff and break the associated cycle of adverse outcomes. Various definitions of telenursing are present in the literature, but a concept analysis of telenursing has not been published. Understanding the concept of telenursing is necessary to integrate this concept within the context of researching nursing shortages and patient and nurse outcomes in acute care hospitals. The author used Walker and Avant's eight-step procedure to define the concept of telenursing and present a model case, a related case, and a contrary case to describe the telenursing concept. This concept analysis helps to provide clarity around the concept of telenursing and directions for future research. Understanding the concept of telenursing is necessary to integrate this concept within the context of researching nursing shortages, nursing satisfaction, and patient and nurse outcomes in various healthcare settings.
