Telehealth Visits:
What is Telehealth?
Through audio and video over the internet, you can meet with your clinician on-the-go from your desktop, laptop, tablet, or mobile device (iOS or Android) - it's your choice!
Telehealth allows us to connect anywhere with secure and convenient appointments that save you time and hassle. There's no need to deal with traffic when you can schedule and attend your appointments directly from a laptop or mobile device.
Is Telehealth private?
Just like a face-to-face appointment, your Telehealth visit will be private and confidential. To prepare your space, you will want to identify a suitable room that is quiet, private, and free of distractions.
To keep background noise to a minimum, make sure to close any doors, shut windows, turn off the television, and keep loud pets in another room if possible. Consider hanging a “Do Not Disturb” sign on the door to avoid interruptions.
Will the appointments be recorded?
Appointments will never be recorded.
What do I need to do to sign up for Telehealth visits and /or Telephone Counseling?
If you would like to see me via telephone or telehealth visits, you can request a visit by leaving me a message or by going to my client portal @ "bethckincaid.clientsecure.me" and requesting a telehealth visit "98968" at a time which is convenient for you with the location- "video office". I will then assume you want a telehealth visit using your smartphone or computer. If you want a telephone without video, please leave me a message to let me know that would be your preference.
If you are connecting to me via smartphone, you will need to download the "Telehealth By Simple Practice" app from the app store prior to clicking the link. I will send you a confirmation email with instructions on what to do and then you will see a reminder 10 minutes before your appointment. I will share a link with you at your appointment time and all you will need to do is press the "join video call" button in the email which should connect you to me.
If you have any further questions about this procedure, feel free to call me and ask for clarification.
