I finished my final session of the GLA:D program for arthritis at the Richibucto clinic.I must say that I was a bit sceptical in the beginning as I had not exp...erienced any programming that helped with pain control since it was discovered that I have osteoarthritis. I have endured many difficult and painful days and evenings in the past several years, and I was thinking, "Here comes another band-aid approach that will be short lived" Boy...was I wrong! I have to give a huge thank-you to Ms. Stephanie Mourant. She was outstanding in her general and specific knowledge base, and of what each Client (group of three) might be facing from an individual perspective. Ms. Mourant modeled and discussed strategies; modified the exercises for each person when the need was there; explaining from an educational perspective, the rational behind the program, the research that supports it, and the exercises that produce results. She was also very cognizant of mental challenges that her clients (us ) might be facing after having dealt with the mental strain of daily living and working through pain. Stephanie discussed mental resilience with us, guiding us to discover a new focus in terms of working our way to maintenance. Work on the program and improve the areas that will help with overall success. After twelve sessions, I have already been able to resume several activities that I believed I would never do again. I have also been able to challenge myself without worrying about doing more damage to my knees. My pain medication has been reduced significantly and my general physical and mental health have also improved. Without a doubt, the GLA:D ideology is the most effective program for dealing with the aggravating, constant drone of arthritis pain that exists. Thank you Stephanie!You're a gem! Kevin See more

1) What is tele-rehabilitation and why would I benefit from it? Tele-rehabilitation is the provision of physiotherapy services from a distance, digitally or v...irtually. It involves communication with a patient who is remotely located from the primary physiotherapist providing service. It incorporates the use of technology such as video conferencing, email, apps, web-based communication or wearable technology. (Reference; https://www.collegept.org//virtual-practice-in-physiothera) It can be very beneficial for patients who are living in rural settings or during times such as now (covid19 global pandemic) that PTs and patients are unable to physically attend treatment sessions. (Reference; https://www.collegept.org//virtual-practice-in-physiothera) 2) What can I expect in an appointment? You can expect that your physiotherapist will email you instructions on how to join your virtual appointment prior to your appointment time. If you have any issues connecting to your appointment your physiotherapist will call you to help resolve these issues. You can expect your physiotherapist to ask questions. You may be asked to demonstrate certain movements or exercises. If your physiotherapist wants to be able to see a particular body part they may request that you wear appropriate clothing (i.e. shoulder injury, may request you wear a tank top). You can expect to receive the same safe, quality care that you would get during an in-person visit. The College expects physiotherapists to meet the same standards of practice regardless of how the services are delivered. (Reference; file:///C:/Users/AshMac/Downloads/Approved-Tele-rehabilitation-Patient-Information-170926.pdf) 3) What computer equipment do I need? You will need a computer, tablet or a smartphone that has a microphone & webcam, and will need access to Wi-Fi or an internet connection. Please check with your physiotherapist as certain platforms require specific equipment. 4) How much does a tele-rehabilitation session cost? Tele-rehabilitation sessions costs should be comparable to in-person visit costs. Please check with your individual physiotherapy clinic regarding costs. 5) Will my tele-rehabilitation session be covered by my extended medical company? Currently in NB the following extended medical companies are covering tele-rehabilitation; o Medavie bluecross o Sunlife o Manulife o Great West Life o Worksafe NB o MVA (motor vehicle accident) claim adjusters (your physiotherapist will have to request authorization for this to be covered) If you are unsure whether your personal extended medical benefits will cover tele-rehabilitation it is recommended that you call them directly to inquire. The contact information can be found on your policy card. 6) Where should I locate myself for an appointment? You should locate yourself in a private area that is free of potential interruptions and disruptions. The area should be quiet and have appropriate lighting so that you can be seen and heard by your physiotherapist. 7) How do I know my privacy and personal information is protected? Physiotherapists are required to ensure the privacy and security of your personal information at all times. This extends to the technology they use as well as the appropriateness of the setting in which services are delivered. (Reference; file:///C:/Users/AshMac/Downloads/Approved-Tele-rehabilitation-Patient-Information-170926.pdf) Your physiotherapist will explain how they will protect your privacy and personal information. Your physiotherapist will provide a consent form that details the risks of using electronic communications and the conditions of using electronic communications that you will read and sign prior to receiving tele-rehabilitation sessions. As with any treatment session you have the right to revoke consent at any time. 8)How do I book and pay? How you book and pay will depend on your individual physiotherapist / physiotherapy clinic. We recommend that you call or email your physiotherapist / physiotherapy clinic to obtain this information.
