Telepractice
Providence Speech and Hearing Center offers evaluations and weekly therapy sessions via video conference to ensure you are able to conveniently access our clinical expertise in the comforts of your home.
Our Telepractice may be an option for Adult Speech, Pediatric Speech, and Occupational Therapy patients after clinical review to determine appropriateness based on individual diagnosis and clinician discretion.
Contact our Scheduling Department at (714) 639-4990 for more information. Telepractice is appointment only and dependent on insurance coverage.
What is Telepractice?
Therapy consisting of video visits with patient sitting in a private room in their home, signing into a HIPAA compliant video software, and meeting with a California licensed therapist.
The quality of telepractice is ensured because, in order to establish a credible telepractice, clinicians must follow the same Code of Ethics and Scope of Practice in Speech Pathology, Occupational and Physical Therapy as well as state and federal laws.
