Background: An essential component of advanced practice nursing (APRN) education includes how to facilitate and adopt telehealth into practice, which includes becoming familiar with what is needed to practice telehealth and how to effectively bill for this service. This article describes the integration of telehealth credentialing, licensing, and billing into a preexisting APRN Role Practicum course.
Method: Participants consisted of two cohorts ( = 129) of APRN students enrolled in a role preparation course within a Doctor of Nursing Practice curriculum. Students' knowledge and perceptions regarding the content of a prerecorded lecture were assessed using a pretest/posttest design. The posttest also included optional module assessment questions.
Results: Student knowledge regarding the information presented increased, and overall student feedback was positive.
Conclusion: Telehealth content was successfully integrated into a preexisting APRN Role Practicum course. Students found the information relevant to future practice and became knowledgeable regarding telehealth laws and regulations. .

Adherence to preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is lower among high-risk populations, including youth experiencing homelessness (YEH). This study determined the feasibility of urine PrEP adherence biomarker testing and examined the barriers and facilitators to PrEP uptake and adherence among YEH. YEH were recruited from a randomized control trial conducted in a large urban setting in southern United States.

As nurses experience higher work demands, finding the time and resources to complete continuing education activities can be challenging. In this innovative activity, baccalaureate nursing students offered a potential solution by developing educational posters for their clinical partners. Bridging theory and practice, this approach enhanced relationships between students and bedside nurses, promoted collaborative learning, and fostered knowledge exchange within the clinical setting.

Recent literature on the effectiveness of lecturing is based on literature published more than 10 years ago; current data on the influence of lecturing on learning outcomes are sparse. Our graduate nursing faculty program conducted a retrospective correlational study to evaluate if the addition of lectures influenced graduate students' learning outcomes.
