Setting up an appointment to see your doctor, nurse, nutritionist or healthcare workers is a tedious process. As it requires one on one interaction by visiting the hospital or clinic. If you are living in a rural area, you need to take a day off from work to visit the doctor. There, you have to wait for your turn. Then, you get to meet your doctor or consultant for hardly 5 to 10 minutes. This whole process takes 2-3 hours of your time if you are living in a rural area. There, such practices are not frequent. Doctors have traditionally structured healthcare as a provider-centric service, meeting the needs of the doctor and the hospital. 

Introduction

But the introduction of telehealth services changes the whole scenario completely. Now, No one could think of getting such health services just by sitting on their sofas or from their workplaces. By attending a video or audio conference call at any point of the day provides the remedy for the problems. Telehealth has made such services more patient-centric, where the patient is treated as a customer who is looking for convenient and effective health care. Telehealth services have shown the whole healthcare fraternity how effective service can be provided, shifting the focus from treating the sick to being an active integrated part of individuals’ wellbeing. Due to the service which is being provided by telehealth such as the availability of the best online doctors, specialists, telemedicine, affordable counseling services, and overall providing at cost-effective prices. Which ultimately results in a better health care facility and satisfaction of the patient.  

However, telehealth service has rooted its services in every direction. Especially, the availability of specialists in the respective fields which gives a more option and variety to choose for. One such field is Nutrition or tele-nutrition. It is a method through which a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) with the help of digital communications and electric information implements their knowledge of nutrition care with the individuals at another location and in limitations of provided guidelines. 

Effectiveness of tele-nutrition by Registered Dietitian and Nutritionist (RDN) 

According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, Telenutrition involves interactive use of technologies by a Registered Dietitian and Nutritionists, through the help of Electronic and telecommunications technologies to implement the nutrition care process such as nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention/plan of care, nutrient monitoring and evaluation, with the patients, within their limits of the licensure as applicable.

The most traditional way of getting such services is by either visiting their clinics or through a personal visit. But through the use of telehealth service, such services can be available to patients from their homes, workplaces, etc. Telehealth services can benefit patients living in remote areas. Also, a healthcare facility that does not have such a staff of Dietitians can be benefitted. It allows dietitians to provide knowledge of diet and can consult high-priority patients. 

Benefits of opting for virtual nutritionist and dietician over traditional practices  

  1. It cut down the travel time for commuting from one place to another for the appointment. 
  2. By choosing such services one is able to choose such service as per their convenience and can remain satisfied with the service. The best thing about such services is it the counseling is available at affordable prices online.
  3. The main advantage of virtual meetings is you can attend them at any time, from any place. The availability of the best doctors online provides a more convenient option to choose from. 
  4. Such a service is more ideal for those who live in remote areas, where it can be hard to find such a facility more often.  
  5. It can be easily accessible. The availability of leading nutritionists and dietitian makes it the more go-to option to choose for. 

Conclusion 

Telehealth is an emerging area of practice in a healthcare facility. While its standard and regulations are still in development, new practices such as Telenutrition could result in a game-changer.  The availability of the best doctors online provides more diversity and go-to options for the consumers. Such a service is more affordable online compared to traditional practices which ultimately results in attracting more numbers of consumers.
