The Allied Health Department of the University of Hawaii-Maui Community College (UH-Maui CC) in Kahului, Hawaii is utilizing technology and services from American TeleCare (ATI), Inc. (Eden Prairie, Minn.) for Project OHANA (Online Health and Academic Network Access), a nursing telehealth initiative.

The goal of the project, which is being funded by the Rural Utilities Service Distance Learning and Telemedicine program, is to develop and evaluate best practices for the integration of telehealth in nurse training and clinical practice, says the company.
