​WHAT IS TELE-HEALTH?

For our Tele-health sessions, we will use an integrated video-conferencing system through the Jane Online Booking Platform.

It is private & secure, meeting healthcare standards for privacy protection & confidentiality.


Using a computer, smartphone or tablet - use a browser on a device with a camera & microphone, Google Chrome works best with this software.
I will simply email a link to you to "click" to join our private meeting.
