Feedback:
University settings require nurses to do research in the better treatment of clients. Telehealth allows a nurse to interact with the client via telephone or computer video/audio link, but no research is involved. Home healthcare is a service wherein the individual's family or friends assist in treatment, whereas hospice care is a service that specializes in the treatment of the terminally ill and is similar to home healthcare; neither these services require the nurse to be involved in research.
