The number of older adults who benefit most from health care services is increasing in our country as well as in the world. However, during the pandemic process, older adults had difficulties in meeting the health care needs they needed. In this direction, the need for tele-health applications has gained importance once again. Tele-health applications are an application that facilitates individuals’ access to health care services in their own home environment, increases the independence of individuals, facilitates disease management, saves time and aims to provide health care in a short time and in the most efficient way. In addition, thanks to the tele-nursing service within the scope of tele-health applications, all the steps of the nursing process can be carried out with the developing technological devices. In this way, both older adults and nurses are positively affected by the care process. The purpose of this review is to raise awareness against tele-nursing applications used in the care of older adults, to present examples of tele-nursing applications in line with the literature, and to examine the advantages and disadvantages of tele-nursing applications.

Öz

Sağlık bakım hizmetlerinden en fazla yararlanan yaşlı bireylerin sayısı dünyada olduğu gibi ülkemizde de giderek artmaktadır. Ancak pandemi sürecinde, yaşlı bireyler, gereksinim duydukları sağlık bakım ihtiyaçlarını karşılamakta zorluk yaşamıştır. Bu doğrultuda tele sağlık uygulamalarına yönelik gereksinimde bir kez daha önem kazanmıştır. Tele sağlık uygulamaları, bireylerin kendi ev ortamlarında sağlık bakım hizmetlerine erişimini kolaylaştıran, bireylerin bağımsızlıklarını arttıran, hastalık yönetimini kolaylaştıran, zaman tasarrufu sağlayan ve sağlık bakımının kısa sürede ve en verimli şekilde sunulmasını amaçlayan bir uygulamadır. Ayrıca tele sağlık uygulamaları kapsamında yer alan tele hemşirelik hizmeti sayesinde de hemşirelik sürecinin tüm adımları gelişen teknolojik cihazlar ile yürütülebilmektedir. Bu sayede bakım sürecinden hem yaşlı bireyler hem hemşireler olumlu etkilenmektedir. Bu derlemenin amacı, yaşlı bireylere yönelik bakımında kullanılan tele hemşirelik uygulamalarına karşı farkındalık yaratmak, literatür doğrultusunda tele hemşirelik uygulama örneklerini sunmak, tele hemşirelik uygulamalarının avantaj ve dezavantajlarını incelemektir.
