Virtual Care Policy
Effective Date: August 24, 2026
Eat Sleep Breathe Myo provides certain services remotely through video conferencing and other electronic technologies.
What Virtual Care Involves
Virtual care may include consultations, assessments, therapy sessions, education, progress reviews, and other appropriate services delivered remotely.
Client Location
Before or at the beginning of a virtual appointment, clients may be required to confirm their current physical location.
Clients must inform ESB Myo if they will be outside their normal province, state, or country when an appointment takes place.
We may be unable to provide the appointment depending upon the client's location and applicable professional or legal requirements.
Technology
Clients are responsible for having:
-
A suitable internet connection
-
A compatible device
-
Working camera and microphone when required
-
An appropriate environment for participation
Privacy
Clients should participate from a private, quiet environment whenever reasonably possible.
Headphones may be used for additional privacy.
Virtual healthcare can create additional privacy and security risks because information travels through electronic technologies and communication infrastructure.
Recording
Clients may not record, photograph, screen-record, livestream, or otherwise capture a session without prior authorization.
ESB Myo will not record a session without obtaining appropriate consent where required.
Limitations
Remote assessment has limitations.
Certain observations, examinations, measurements, or interventions may require in-person evaluation.
If virtual care is not appropriate, we may recommend an in-person assessment or referral to another qualified healthcare professional.
Minors
A parent or guardian may be required to participate in or be available during virtual services involving a minor.
Emergencies
Virtual services provided by ESB Myo are not emergency services.
A client experiencing a medical emergency should immediately seek appropriate local emergency assistance.
Informed Consent
Participation in virtual care may require separate informed consent.
Clients may ask questions about the risks, benefits, limitations, privacy considerations, and alternatives before participating.
