A number of fantastic size and is an opportunity for nurses to improve nursing service coverage throughout the territory of Indonesia with high efficiency. internet information technology, the term telemedicine, telehealth and telenursing became popular as one model of health care. (Martono N. www.inna.ppni.org .2006).

Telenursing already implemented in many countries like in America, Greece, Israel, Japan, Italy, Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, Jordan, India and even Malaysia. Organization of American nurses in 1999 had recommended the development of a comprehensive analysis of the use telenursing. In the United States, 36% of increased need for nursing home care within the next 7 years can be overcome with telenursing and in another party state is reported to have use of telecommunications services at home to care home care with telenursing.

Health services, especially nursing distance using the media of information technology (internet) to provide convenience to the public.

Remote nursing practice (telenursing) in Indonesia has not developed as in developed countries like America or Australia. Telenursing usage in Indonesia is still limited to the areas of education such as that developed at GMU through an e-learning or e-lisa model that is integrated in all GMU faculty and several other private universities.

Recently, in Indonesia standing organization that is engaged in nursing care services at home (Home Care.) Home care in Indonesia have not used the system Telenursing, but still a home visit, which means nurses visit the homes of patients to be treated directly not using sophisticated technology services. The medium used is still limited to the use of media as a call center phone. And that's still limited to big cities, the district has not touched home care services.

This model of nursing care (home care) actually can be regarded as long-distance nursing care services (telenursing) although very simple.

That need to be prepared is how to answer questions about the legality rather than health services (nursing distance) as follows: Do you think care practitioners and professional care, care which is presented by electronic distance is the practice of science care. Is the care of treatment with no touch of the hands of nurses and only use telekonference communication is arguably the nursing care that legal?

Actually, these questions were answered when we underlie the workings Telenursing, where nurses use knowledge, skills, considerations and critical thinking that can not be separated in the (in) science education care. Activity has been given license to perform nursing care. Legal definition of science treatments almost always include 1) Use care sciences education, 2) critical thinking, and 3) decision making. So it is clear that Telenursing a nursing job opportunities legal profession. Tantunya professional organizations in support of licensing is needed.
