- Make sure you have downloaded Zoom on your phone or computer. Check the Zoom website for help.
- Using a cell phone or laptop is preferred over a desktop computer as your physiotherapist may need you to move the camera to see the full body.
- Ask other members of your home to not be downloading or streaming to other digital devices so your connection will not be slowed down.
- Dress in comfortable clothing that you can easily move in.
- Settle kids in another room so they don’t distract you.
- Find a space that is clear about 3 feet around you; remove all rugs or furniture if possible.
- Have good lighting either with a tubelight, be near a window during the day, or other good overhead lighting.
- If possible, ask someone in the home to help hold the camera if directed by your physiotherapist.
- For any activities that may require balance, you may want to have a table, sofa or other heavy furniture for support that is at waist height.
- Find a space that is quiet.
Take a deep breath and know you’re getting good care right in the comfort of your home!
