Confidentiality and Risks Telehealth is subject to the Privacy Act 1988 and must comply with obligations related to the collection, use and disclosure of personal information. The clinicians must maintain confidentiality and privacy standards during sessions, and in creating,keeping, and transmitting records. At times, audio and video recordings of sessions may be taken to support the clinician’s work and/or training, as might occur in a face-to-face consultation. Any recordings taken will be saved on a secure drive accessible only to Clinic personnel. You are not permitted to video or audio record the consultation, unless your speech pathologist gives you permission to do so. While the clinicians are obligated to meetstandardsto protect your privacy and security, use of Online communication platforms for telehealth, may increase exposure to hacking and other Online risks; as with all Online activities, there is no guarantee of complete privacy and security protection. You may decrease the risk by using a secure Internet connection, meeting with the speech pathologist from a private location, and only communicating using secure channels. For clients under 18 years, an adult must be present for the whole session sitting next to and supporting the child through the activities. If there is a disruption to services or technical difficulties with the online communication platform, the clinician will ring the client via telephone to discuss how to proceed with the session. If reconnection is not possible within 10 minutes, the client will be sent an email to reschedule the session. In case of an emergency, clients will be asked to provide information about their current location, and the contact details of two people. This allows the clinician to respond appropriately if there are concerns about the client’s wellbeing.

Telehealth may not be a suitable service for you. If the clinician believes that telehealth is no longer appropriate for a client’s needs, the clinician may suspend treatment until in-person sessions can be resumed, or the clinician may refer the client to a more appropriate service.
