Telehealth suitability
Online OT is useful when the task fits the setting.
our adult OT guidance is deliberately practical: telehealth can be a strong option for assessments, reports and some ongoing therapy, but it should not be used to shortcut work that needs the clinician in the home or with equipment in front of them.
Often suitable online
Assessments, reports and therapy planning
Functional Capacity Assessments, report writing, plan-review documentation and ongoing therapy can often be considered for telehealth when the referral context, documents and goals fit.
Usually better face to face
Home modifications and equipment trials
Home modifications and equipment prescription usually need face-to-face assessment where possible so the environment can be measured, safety checked and equipment trialled properly.
For aged-care enquiries, we check what changed at home, the funding or coordinator context and whether the question can be handled online.
What to send first
What to include in your enquiry.
Include what changed at home, who is enquiring, the person’s location, aged-care funding or coordinator details, and whether home safety or equipment needs direct assessment.
