Abstract
Background: Telehealth has escalated as a method for delivering healthcare. Faculty are now realizing that telehealth must be integrated within advanced practice registered nursing (APRN) education. With simulation being a leading method for teaching clinical skills, faculty need a structure for integrating telehealth within simulations. Method: Faculty members from varying advanced practice tracks were tasked with the job of creating simulations that included telehealth. They identified the importance of having a template to follow. Results: The iSOAP model for Telehealth Simulation was developed to aid faculty in developing simulation cases to represent telehealth encounters. Conclusion: The iSOAP model can be used to develop simulated experiences that enable faculty to educate and evaluate APRN students as they strive to meet required telehealth competencies needed for practice.
