Telehealth Guidelines:


SA-ACAPAP strives to grow, lead and share good practice in 
Child and Adolescent Mental Health in South Africa.
 As part of those efforts we have designed a short guideline on telehealth for  
child and adolescent mental health practitioners in South Africa

Given the success of the first guidelines on telehealth, SA-ACAPAP has
developed a second set of
evidence-based guidelines for clinicians.
These guidelines are entitled, 'Building resilience in children,
families and caregivers: An evidence-based clinicians' guide'.
