Abstract
Telehealth healthcare service delivery requires unique competencies, as it remains a valuable healthcare service post-COVID, including clinical exercise physiology (CEP) contexts. As such, it is imperative health students develop telehealth skills, with this pilot research exploring CEP student and supervisor experience of co-delivering a telehealth clinic. A 5-point Likert scale (frequencies; students only) and open-ended questions (inductive content enhanced learning), highlighting an enjoyable, transferable experience. All participants reported key improvements are needed in areas including technology and preparation time. For supervisors (n=5), themes related to telehealth advantages and disadvantages, and clinic facilitation elements. Even with a small sample size, this pilot study identified potential learning outcomes and challenges related to telehealth. Findings can be used to guide development of more sustainable future WIL programs, within and beyond CEP, to continue building future healthcare professionals comfortable and competent in telehealth service provision.
