title: E-health web portals: delivering holistic healthcare and making home the point of care.
abstract: E-health delivers healthcare services and education, via a Web portal, to older persons with chronic conditions and their caregivers and enables the patient's home to be the point of care. This growing industry is ripe for exploration by nurses who can empower the patient and caregiver to gain self-care and coping skills. Advances in information technology now make this dream a reality.
