Telemedicine service is now used by more and more people, but if it is not properly managed, it will cause a lot of accidents, so how to manage this telemedicine consulting service is very important. I think it's a very good lecture, so you can take a look at it and learn more about it.

In this course I learned how to make virtual history and necessary observations in remote Settings. It also learned to consider safe patient management and how to triage patients through remote consultation. It was a great benefit.

This course provides health care professionals with the tools to conduct counseling and remote and secure basic observation, including basic triage. It works really well.

Since the outbreak of the epidemic, the hospital resources are very tight, and the hospital has become a very infectious place, so remote health consultation as a medical service is very important, and this course is very well explained.
