[The role of telemedicine in the organisation of care].

Telemedicine, or remote medicine, gives rise to new ways of organising nursing care. It promotes collaborative professional practices, especially between doctors and nurses, authorised by the 2009 "Hospital, patients, health and territories" law. The continuity of care at home is consolidated by medical telemonitoring which integrates nursing care and follow-up. This new organisation contributes to patients' therapeutic education.
