Telenursing: Some experiences and lessons from Nepal

It was at around 4 pm on May 9, 2021. A handful of the nurses specialising in women health and development and child health nursing at the Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital came together to discuss the possibilities of their contribution during the Covid-19. But, they were least aware that they had initiated a conversation that would later be a pioneering work on remote nursing care in Nepal.
The Covid-19 Special Nurse Group members hail from every province of Nepal and are providing nursing services remotely, using telecommunications guided by the principle of telenursing.
This article will walk you through the group members’ personal accounts of working as a remote caregiver, the benefits to nurses at the personal and professional levels and in doing so, we will attempt to draw lessons from the developed world where remote care is flourishing.
