The concept of telemedicine is that patients can seek medical care through electronic devices and sources. Patients can attend a clinical visit with their provider from their own home without coming in for an in-person visit.
Specialties that utilize telemedicine include psychiatry, primary care, radiology, dermatology, cardiology, and pathology, but are not confined to just these (Medgadget, 2022).

The potential pros of the increase in usage of Telehealth are:
1) Decrease the dependence on hospitals and emergency rooms
2) Increased access to providers for patients in rural areas lacking primary care providers.
3) Helps meet the need for health care of growing elderly populations.
4) Allows patients to seek care from home, positively impacting infection control.

I believe that telemedicine is a great way for patients in underserved populations to have the opportunity to seek medical and specialty care that is not readily available in their areas. Although telemedicine is new and has not been utilized across many specialties thus far, I can see it increasing in popularity and being used by many different specialties going forward.
I do believe there is valid a concern with ensuring security, especially with patient's using home computers and systems.

As a learner, I recognize that as you work through a problem, you must continually grow and learn from others and from the problem itself.

Between team members, empathy is required. It takes a general understanding of each person's challenges and weaknesses to assist and grow.

I find that being a relator greatly helps in being a team leader. Having the ability to relate greatly impact teammate's relationships and understanding.
