Nursing in tele‐mental health
Abstract
This article discusses a cooperative project involving an academic health sciences center, a state university, a women's shelter, and a community mental health center in East Texas, a medically underserved, rural region of Texas. The U.S. Department of Commerce provided grant funding to develop a telehealth network to provide an evaluation, referral, and treatment program for victims of domestic violence. Nurses were involved in all phases of the project, from initial conception through development, implementation, and evaluation. The authors concluded that all of the women involved in the study had significant mental health issues and other health concerns that were not being addressed by the existing health care delivery system. Without the use of telehealth, these women would have had limited access to primary health care and virtually no access to mental health services. The East Texas Tele-Mental Health Network demonstrates the value of the clinical and organizational skills that nurses bring to innovative models of mental health service delivery.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
