Getting an occupational therapist into an AFC home for every ADL assessment, fall-risk scan, or adaptive equipment check isn’t always fast — or necessary. Telehealth can close that gap, but only when it’s done with the right technique, ethics, and compliance behind it. Direct Care Training’s Telehealth & Occupational Therapy in Adult Foster Care gives OTs the framework to deliver virtual care that actually holds up.
The course covers telehealth readiness and visit workflow, remote ADL/IADL and functional mobility assessment, virtual home safety scans and fall-risk coaching, training AFC staff on adaptive equipment through video, and caregiver coaching with teach-back checks — all grounded in HIPAA-aware documentation and privacy practices built for AFC settings specifically.
Michigan AFC CEU-eligible, this course helps OTs extend quality, person-centered care without sacrificing safety, compliance, or clinical rigor.
