Hi Shannon, Thankyou for your interest and query. Most definitely, we are keen to investigate planned variations that combine telehealth delivery with some face-to-face contact between the clinician and family. In some situations it may be possible for the child and parent to attend the speech clinic for an initial assessment and for treatment to be introduced in the standard format. Subsequent contact could occur by telehealth with clinic visits scheduled whenever this was possible and practical for the clinician and family, or as indicated by either the child's progress, or the parent's proficiency with treatment. Thanks again for your interest, Chris.
