NSWOCC is thrilled to announce the launch of our Virtual Care Toolkit!
In response to the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Nurses Specialized in Wound, Ostomy, and Continence (NSWOCs) have pioneered virtual care solutions to ensure uninterrupted support for clients.
Introducing the NSWOCC Virtual Care Toolkit: a comprehensive resource designed by a dedicated task force to empower NSWOCs in navigating the complexities of virtual care delivery. This toolkit, accessible online, addresses legal, technological, and equity considerations, offering practical guidance for delivering high-quality care virtually.
From legal compliance to technology integration and inclusive care practices, the toolkit equips NSWOCs with the tools and knowledge needed to excel in virtual care.
Although this document is focused on NSWOC practice, some Skin Wellness Associate Nurses (SWANs), in particular diploma registered nurse (RN) SWANs, may have the knowledge, skills, and judgment to provide some virtual consults.
Thank you to the Task Force for building NSWOCC’s first Virtual Care Toolkit!
