Telehealth

Accessing Telehealth

  • PhysiAPP

    Full Circle Wellness uses PhysiApp, the world's leading provider of online exercise prescription, which enables us to prescribe you with a comprehensive range of exercises in video format that can easily be followed in the comfort of your home.

    As a patient all you need to do is install Physiapp on your smartphone or tablet, or access PhysiApp on your computer or laptop. We will do the rest. We will schedule a telehealth video call between you and your practitioner, who will then prescribe an exercise program specifically for you that can be done outside of sessions. This enables you to exercise without our supervision, as well as communicate with us about how you went. This is all conveniently done within PhysiApp. Click here for detailed instructions.

  • Zoom

    Alternatively we can also utilise an application called Zoom. This is easy to use, but more difficult than physiapp when it comes to prescribing exercises and communication outside of sessions.

Exercise Physiology Online with Telehealth

  • Telehealth services use information and communication technologies to deliver healthcare services. This can include a consultation via telephone, email or videoconferencing.

    Telehealth is becoming more popular as a mode of healthcare delivery due to the benefits it provides to both patients and practitioners. It also has the potential to provide patients with more convenient and efficient access to healthcare whilst remaining safe during the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • A Telehealth appointment usually involves conducting a consultation remotely using the camera on your smartphone, tablet or computer.

  • In general, Telehealth works well for outpatients or those unable to travel (as a general clinic alternative). However, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic this service has become generally available to everyone. Specifically it is available to the following:

    Anyone with a referral from their GP.

    Eligible DVA clients.

    NDIS participants with approval from their plan managers.

    Workers Compensation patients with an eligible referral from their case manager.

  • Before your Telehealth appointment we suggest you make sure you have checked the following:

    Strong internet connection

    Device has a near full battery

    Audio and Visual Connection

    Camera is setup handsfree

    The room is quiet

    The room is clear and well lit

    Obstacles are removed

    Any session equipment is nearby

    Log on 5 minutes early

    If you are interested in arranging a Telehealth consultation, or want more information, contact your GP or allied health practitioner. They can provide information about the different apps and how best to use Telehealth for your needs. Contact us today on 07 5456 1599 and we can guide you through the process.
