Abstract Objective: This scoping review aims to understand what opportunities exist to provide health promotion to the adult population within Remote Clinical Care. Introduction: With increasing demand for healthcare in an environment of overstretched healthcare resources (1), and the legal responsibility on public organisations within Wales to improve long-term health (2), all opportunities to promote health should be considered. The consolidation of Remote Clinical Care in most Western Healthcare Services may provide such potential opportunities. Inclusion criteria: The inclusion criteria will incorporate adults contacting Remote Clinical Care services that provide Health Promotion. It will exclude any sources not written in English, restrict articles to post-2013, and exclude articles that focus entirely on mental well-being or individuals under 16. Methods: Searches will be undertaken in Medline (PubMed), CINAHL (EBSCOhost), Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and British Nursing databases to identify published studies and grey literature. Searches will also be undertaken on Google Scholar, Google, ProQuest Dissertations, and Theses Global, as well as direct contact with NHS 111 (or equivalent) service providers within the UK to identify any grey literature. Searches will also include bibliographic searches of published studies. The JBI methodology for Scoping Reviews will be followed, and data extraction, analysis, and presentation of the results will follow the principles laid out. (3). As this review forms part of a wider Doctorate in Public Health submission, data screening and selection will be undertaken by the primary author (CB) only, and supervision for the doctorate will be undertaken by the other three authors (NB, MB, LJ).
