Abstract: Background In the context of the digital transformation of all areas of society, health care providers are also under pressure to change. New technologies and a change in patients’ self-perception and health awareness require rethinking the provision of health care services.

“…Often, these investigations consist of feasibility studies [55,56], assessments of potential applications [31,33], or discussions of carerelated possibilities [57]. While certain trend forecasts have examined the broader implications of digital transformation on the hospital sector [58], a comprehensive examination of how the care setting may evolve within its broader context, and the concrete effects that may ensue, has not been extensively explored. Our study endeavors to bridge this research gap by conducting a forward projection, utilizing well-established methods of futurology.…”

This is supported by the substantial amount of internet users in the community, so that the implementation of telenursing as part of the hospital's digital transition does not become an impediment to the implementation of alternative care, integrative care, and sustainable care that can be implemented as a current treatment trend between hospitals, health centers, and the community, so individuals or patients with certain conditions do not need to come to the hospital.…”
