You and your family’s well-being is the most important thing and as we all learn to navigate the growing challenges of the Co-Vid 19 pandemic, I have been investigating ways I can continue to provide uninterrupted speech pathology services while also keeping everyone as safe as possible. Maintaining our children's routines and learning is a way that we can try to normalize what is a very confusing and stressful time for all of us.
As a health service, I am still continuing to provide services at my clinic in Robina at the Bond Institute of Health and Sport, and at The Southport School. I am continuously monitoring the advice from the Queensland Health Department, as to whether ongoing face to face sessions are still advisable. www.qld.gov.au/health/conditions/health-alerts/coronavirus-covid-19
Should face to face sessions not be an option for you or your family, either now, or in the future, I have been researching options for ongoing speech pathology sessions.
Tele-health sessions will allow us to continue developing your and your family's communication goals. All you need is either a computer, iPad/tablet or phone that allows for the viewing and transmission of video and sound and an internet connection. I am currently using Zoom as the secure platform through which these services can be provided. All you need to do is click the link that I email you prior to our scheduled session. As always, I will endeavor to make our sessions interesting and engaging for you and your student. Home practice activities will also be provided.
Your health and safety matters … please be assured that for clinic sessions:
Please be in touch if you have any questions.

Your health and safety matters … please be assured that for clinic sessions:
- I am adhering to best practice infection control through hand washing and disinfection of surfaces and toys.
- I will stay away from work if unwell and ask you to stay at home if you are unwell too
- As our waiting room can sometimes be a busy place with lots of people coming and going, I ask that you head up to reception exactly when your session is to start. I work very hard to be on time or will call you if there is likely to be a delay in starting the session.
- We also ask that if at all possible, only you and your child attend the therapy session to minimise the number of people in the waiting room and in the treatment rooms. There maybe a delay in your session starting should we need to accommodate larger family groups in sessions or some family members may need to wait outside the clinic.
Please be in touch if you have any questions.
