Telehealth Services
Telehealth is the use of electronic transmissions to treat the needs of clients. I offer both video and audio forms of communication via the Internet and/or telephone. This includes the practice of health care delivery, diagnosis, consultation, treatment, transfer of medical data, and education using interactive audio, video, or data communications. This can be done anywhere you have a computer or smartphone, and a secure internet connection.
Though I take all necessary steps to protect your healthcare information, the risks involved with Telehealth do include the potential release of private information due to the complexities and abnormalities involved with the Internet. Viruses, Trojans, and other involuntary intrusions have the ability to capture and release information you may desire to keep private. Further, there is the risk of being overheard by any individual near you if you are not in a private area while engaging in Telehealth appointments. It is important to be aware that while Teletherapy may provide significant benefits, it may also pose risks.
