Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Telehealth is an umbrella term encompassing health activity that involves distance. Programs use digital interactive television or computers that offer two-way communication. Telehealth is changing the way that health care is being delivered and will continue to play an increasing role with the emphasis on community focus. The World Health Organization does not currently regulate telehealth programs. The World Wide Web does not control telehealth or offer the program to consumers. Telehealth links nurses, doctors, and other healthcare providers to patients. The primary purpose of telehealth is care delivery and not promotion of the image of nursing.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

Possible future is defined as what can happen if some changes are made. Probable future is the most likely outcome if things continue unchanged. Plausible future is the likely outcome when specific efforts are made to accomplish a desired outcome. Preferred future is the outcome that is wanted.
