This literature review was conducted to inform the evaluation of the Virtual Nursing in Aged Care project, funded by the Department of Health and Aged Care, which will be implemented from 2024 to 2027 to optimise clinical care outcomes for older people living in residential aged care.
La Trobe University has been contracted to conduct an evaluation of the project. The evaluation plan comprises four stages. As a deliverable resulting from Stage 1 of the project, a rapid literature review was conducted to scope current evidence for virtual nursing care interventions or programs in long-term residential aged care homes (RACHs).
