Instructions for using zoom for telehealth with Bernie McCarthy

Please follow the steps below:

  1. If you have zoom on your computer or phone go to Step 5.
  2. If you do not have zoom go to Step 3.
  3. Download the software from www.zoom.us  to your computer or you can use it as an app on your smartphone.
  4. Once the software installs (on phone or computer) it will ask you to open an account with a login and password. This is a free account. You can get to know the program and test your camera, microphone and speakers before the session to make sure it all works.
  5. A few minutes prior to the appointment time, open zoom by clicking on the app or by opening to program in your computer.
  6. Click on Join Meeting. Type the ten digit meeting ID which you will be given, for each appointment. This does not change. It is the same each time we meet.
  7. Click Join. This will place you in a ‘waiting room’, much as you would if you were meeting for therapy face-to-face. Bernie will then click on his end and you will both commence the session.

When the COVID-19 pandemic is over we will meet face-to-face or you may continue with online consultations if you wish.

Any issues, questions or problems, please phone Bernie on 0408 145 819.
