Why Telehealth?

Convenience

Telehealth removes travel time and allows therapy to be conducted from home, making it highly accessible and comfortable.

Cost

Telehealth can help patients and families save on the costs associated with in-person visits, such as travel expenses, commuting time, and potential time off work.

Safety

Telehealth is a safe alternative for those who are immunocompromised or live with high-risk family members, reducing exposure to pathogens that may be present in physical settings.

Evidence

A 2022 BMC Primary Care study found that 80.5% of caregivers were satisfied with telehealth rehabilitation services.
A 2023 study published by the American Journal of Occupational Therapy found that telehealth interventions are feasible and effective in improving fine motor and social communication performance.
A 2024 systematic review conducted by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association reported that telehealth outcomes were comparable to those of face-to-face delivery, and in some cases resulted in superior outcomes.
