Abstract

Social distancing protocols instituted during the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in a rapid shift to telehealth in Australia. Psychiatrists have been at the forefront of telehealth delivery, due to the relative usefulness for patients with psychiatric disorders (Looi and Pring, 2020). However, there are considerable challenges in implementing telehealth for patients with schizophrenia and suspected psychosis.
