VIRTUAL vs FACE TO FACE Programs

At Pine Rivers Private Hospital we understand that sometimes on-site programs are just not practical. You may live too far away from the clinic, have dependents or caregiving responsibilities that prevent you from leaving home, or are simply unable to attend for health reasons.

Virtual, Group Therapy – Day Programs have been introduced to help in these situations and are conducted just like telehealth appointments using the live-streaming ZOOM platform.            

 Look for this symbol throughout our website and brochures to indicate which programs are available virtually.  Please note that sessions may have participants attending both in person and virtually.

 

Participation in full day programs Virtually is funded by some health funds only. 

Please contact our friendly admin team to check if your Private Health Fund supports virtual programs or if you have further questions on 07 3881 7291 or email Prv.Enquiries@healthscope.com.au.

 

Some programs are only available in a FACE to FACE capacity as the skills based learning can only be achieved whilst working directly with the facilitator.  If you live remotely or commuting distances are difficult, please talk with your psychiatrist and health fund about becoming an Inpatient and working on these skills whilst staying at Pine Rivers Private Hospital.

If you live within commuting distance to the hospital, we always like to encourage people to attend FACE to FACE where possible so they can have the opportunity to meet other participants with the similar lived experiences and soak up that group support and atmoshphere.
