Rebound’s Virtual Occupational Therapy Services

Rebound Health is proud to offer all Australians the opportunity to get access to the best Practitioners - via Telehealth.

What are the benefitds to online occupational therapy?

  • Access to the best - We connect you with the best clinician for you (instead of just who is closest or most available). This often means a better experience and better results.

  • No travel - We meet you wherever you are. No matter where you are (at home, at school, in hospital, or even at the park!), you can take your sessions with you.

  • Fun & engaging - Rebound offers a unique program of online learning modules that are fun, interactive and engaging - making learning new skills, even better.

  • Safety - Online therapy is the safest method for delivering health services - eliminating the possibility of exchanging germs during a session.

  • Save money - No travel time, means no travel cost! Instead paying for a clinician’s time to travel to you, you can put that money to better use with more sessions.No travel time, means no travel cost! Or if you’re the one usually travelling, you can save that money too!

How are the telehealth OT sessions conducted?

We use videoconferencing technology like Zoom, Skype or FaceTime. In many ways, it’s just like a typical OT session.

We’ll talk about the client’s needs, challenges and mobility issues. Using a portable device like a phone, tablet or laptop, clients can show us the spaces in the home that need our evaluation and advice.

How does an online session compare to a face-to-face session?

We’re still addressing our clients’ needs and identifying issues.

Technology is very impressive these days, so we can hear, discuss and see what we need to. Of course, nothing beats a face-to-face visit. But during social isolation, it’s impossible. So, online telehealth occupational therapy sessions are the next best thing. For some types of sessions it won’t work, but most of the time, we find it most effective.
