Telehealth Notice

Telehealth Requirements

Patients must participate from a private, safe location with reliable internet access. At the beginning of every telehealth visit, patients must provide their current physical location (address or identifiable location) so emergency services can be dispatched if necessary. Patients must also provide and maintain an up-to-date emergency contact.

Safety

Patients may not participate in telehealth appointments while driving, operating machinery, or engaging in any activity that could compromise safety. If a provider determines that a patient is driving or otherwise unable to safely participate, the visit may be ended and rescheduled.

Emergencies

Mindful Vitality Partners is an outpatient psychiatric practice and does not provide emergency or crisis services. If there is an imminent risk of harm to yourself or others during a telehealth visit, the provider may contact emergency services or your designated emergency contact when clinically appropriate.

Additional Information

Telehealth services are available only when clinically appropriate and only in jurisdictions where your clinician is authorized to practice. A provider-patient relationship is established only after evaluation, acceptance into care, and completion of required documentation.
