How do I prepare for a telehealth session?
Telehealth sessions can offer many conveniences without losing out on quality care. In order to preserve the quality of care that can be provided, it is best to have a private space free of distractions where you can focus on your treatment. Treat the session as though you are at the doctor's office without having to make the drive.
