The History of Allied Health Telehealth
The Allied Health Telehealth Program began in 2003 in the Greater Eastern and Southern Child Health Network. Since its inception, over 6000 Allied Health Professionals have accessed paediatric education and support via the Telehealth Program.
2010 saw the expansion of the GESCHN Allied Health Telehealth Program to all three Child Health Networks to facilitate funded, statewide education for Allied Health Professionals working with children.
The Allied Health Telehealth Program is an initiative of the NSW Child Health Networks (CHN) to promote the use of Telehealth as a means of supporting and enhancing acute paediatric care across the Greater Eastern and Southern Child Health Network (GESCHN), the Northern Child Health Network (NCHN) and the Western Child Health Network (WCHN).
It provides NSW Health Allied Health Professionals with fortnightly access to education activities and workshops conducted at various sites across the state of NSW.
