    • Informed Consent for Remote Nursing Consultation

    • DIRECT TO CONSUMER

      1. Introduction: Our (Corstrata Nursing Services, PC) nursing consultations involve the use of interactive audio, video, or other electronic communications to enable our wound and ostomy nurses at different locations to share individual patient medical information for the purpose of improving patient care as well as to engage in consultations regarding wound and ostomy care. The information gathered and discussed may be used for diagnosis, therapy, follow-up and/or education, and may include any of the following:
        • Patient medical records
        • Medical images
        • Live two-way audio and video
        • Output data from medical devices and sound and video files
        • Electronic systems used will incorporate network and software security protocols to protect the confidentiality of patient identification and imaging data and will include measures to safeguard the data and to ensure its integrity against intentional or unintentional corruption.
      2. Expected Benefits:
        • Improved access to care by enabling a patient to remain in his/her location, physician’s office, or at a remote site, while obtaining consultations with our wound and ostomy nurses at distant/other sites.
        • More efficient medical evaluation and management.
        • Obtaining expertise of a distant specialist nurses, that may not otherwise be available at the patient’s or their healthcare provider’s location.
      3. Possible Risks: As with any similar services, there are potential risks associated with the use of telehealth related applications and services. These risks include, but may not be limited to:
        • In rare cases, information transmitted may not be sufficient (e.g. poor resolution of images) to allow for appropriate medical decision making by the physician and consultant(s).
        • Delays in medical evaluation and treatment could occur due to deficiencies or failures of the equipment. In the event the electronic services are interrupted due to a technology problem or an equipment failure, alternative means of communication may be necessary and/or an in-person medical evaluation with a local health care provider may be necessary.
        • In very rare instances, security protocols could fail, causing a breach of privacy of personal medical information.
        • In rare cases, a lack of access to complete medical records may result in adverse drug interactions or allergic reactions or other judgment errors.In addition, remote nursing services will not allow our nurses to perform an in-person physical examination at the time the remote nursing consultation is provided, which could result in a failure to properly identify an ailment or condition that would otherwise have been properly addressed in an in-person consultation.
      4. Alternatives: There are alternatives to remote nursing services. For instance, scheduling an appointment with a local healthcare provider may be available.
      5. Acknowledgment: By signing this form, I understand the following:
        • I understand that the laws that protect privacy and the confidentiality of medical information also apply to remote nursing services, and that no information obtained in the use of remote nursing services which identifies me will be disclosed to researchers or other entities without my consent.
