At the end of 2019, a novel coronavirus, now known as COVID-19, was detected in China. Despite international efforts to contain the virus, it has spread across the globe, forcing World Health Organization to declare a pandemic (WHO Director-General’s opening remarks, 2020). The majority of the confirmed cases are now in the United States – by April, 28 this figure has exceeded 1 million with more than 50,000 people dead (The US has now passed 1 million confirmed Covid-19 cases, 2020). This almost unprecedented global danger has led to the introduction of unprecedented measures. Fighting the pandemic requires a contribution from every citizen in every country of the world. For the majority of people, it means complying with the demands of social distancing and taking the necessary precautions and sanitary measures. It is, indeed, a difficult time for everyone – so, supporting the ones around, doing something for those who cannot take care of themselves properly in this time of danger is also essential. During the pandemic, many people face numerous concerns and stress factors every day, for example, worrying about their older family members getting the virus or being infected themselves, about losing their job or searching for a new one. However, while the whole world is now facing and fighting this crisis, the particular burden lies on the shoulders of health professionals working with COVID-19 patients – doctors, nurses, interns, and even yesterday’s students.

Health professionals working with infected patients experience high levels of stress and are burdened by the sense of responsibility seeing people’s sufferings and concerns. Yet, even during the time of COVID-19 pandemic, there are other health issues that should be attended to. Some people may need urgent surgical treatment; others are already recovering and require medical surveillance. There are people with injuries and chronic illnesses, as well as people with addictions and life-threatening mental disorders (such as anorexia nervosa or clinical depression). Many of these issues can also be exacerbated by involuntary isolation and high levels of stress. In such a situation, when people can meet with their doctor only under serious circumstances, telehealth services are essential. Telemedicine involves resorting to electronic equipment for exchanging medical information (Health Resources Services Administration, 2012, as cited in Billings & Halstead, 2015). The practice of home-based monitoring has been increasingly introduced in various health facilities in the US in recent years. Some healthcare systems use telehealth in order to eliminate problems connected to personnel shortages, to provide medical advice after the established clinic hours, and to reduce patients travel burdens (Dorsey & Topol, 2016). The last aspect is particularly acute for people with disabilities and ones living in distant rural areas. On that ground, the need for enhancement of providing telehealth services for treating various me
