This widely researched study probes what happens when technologies are used to provide healthcare at a distance. Drawing on ethnographic studies of both patients and nurses involved in telecare, Jeannette Pols demonstrates that instead of resulting in less intensive care for patients, there is instead a staggering rise in the frequency of contact between nursing staff and their patients. 'Care at a Distance' takes the theoretical framework of telecare and provides hard data about these innovative care practices, while producing an accurate portrayal of the pros and cons of telecare. 410 0$aCare & welfare 606 $aHome care services$xTechnological innovations 606 $aMedical ethics 606 $aMedical informatics 606 $aTelecommunication in medicine 615 0$aHome care services$xTechnological innovations. 615 0$aMedical ethics. 615 0$aMedical informatics. 615 0$aTelecommunication in medicine. 676 $a362.14 700 $aPols$b J$g(Jeannette),$f1966-$0801308 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141327503321 996 $aCare at a Distance$91802651 997 $aUNINA
