What is a virtual registered nurse?

A Virtual Registered Nurse (VRN) is a licensed nurse who provides patient care and health education remotely using telehealth technologies. They conduct patient assessments, monitor health conditions, offer medical advice, and coordinate care through video calls, phone calls, and secure messaging platforms. Virtual RNs play a crucial role in expanding access to healthcare, especially for patients in rural or underserved areas, and help manage chronic conditions, post-discharge support, and general wellness consultations. Their responsibilities are similar to those of traditional nurses but are delivered through digital communication tools.
