Royal Far West's Allied Health Telehealth Services for Children Post‐Bushfires

Occupational therapy, psychology and speech pathology telehealth sessions contributed to positive health and well-being outcomes for children affected by the bushfires. The findings support the implementation of RFW's five key principles for telehealth services: (1) Access to a multidisciplinary team; (2) Practical resources; (3) Flexible delivery; (4) Providing in-person session to support telehealth and (5) Take a 'whole of child' approach. Innovative telehealth offered children in geographically remote areas access to effective allied health support post-disaster that was not readily available in their local communities.
