What is a Telehealth Nurse?

A Telehealth Nurse delivers nursing care remotely — by phone, video, or asynchronous messaging — for triage, education, chronic-disease management, and post-discharge follow-up.

Telehealth nurses must hold an active RN (or APRN) license in every state where the patient is physically located. Compact licensure dramatically expands their reach.
