Abstract

  • The COVID-19 pandemic allowed for widespread implementation of telehealth as a delivery
    method for occupational therapy (OT) services. The purpose of this study was to investigate the
    perceptions of novice telehealth OT practitioners regarding telehealth as a delivery method for
    occupational therapy services. Quantitative data was collected through a modified version of the
    Telehealth Usability Questionnaire and analyzed via descriptive statistics. Qualitative data was
    collected by open-ended questions and analyzed via thematic analysis. OT practitioner responses
    revealed four major themes: logistics of telehealth practice, role of client champions, capacity of
    occupational therapist, and styles and approaches. The study revealed that OT sessions delivered
    via telehealth increased access to clients and continuity of services. Client champion
    engagement, effective coaching strategies, and practitioner flexibility supported the success of
    OT telehealth sessions.
