While virtual nursing may be a new concept for some health systems, UCSF Health is launching its new program on a telemedicine platform that has long helped the health system address key care gaps.

The California-based health system is expanding a strategy that has seen success in telesitting, virtual consults, and the eICU.

In this week's lead story, CNIO Kay Burke explains how UCSF, part of the HealthLeaders Virtual Nursing Mastermind program, is using that model to create new opportunities for care management in inpatient units.
