ABSTRACT
This paper highlights issues, challenges, and lessons learnt from implementing a speech-language therapy teleclinic service delivery model by the Speech Sciences Program, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) during the wake of the recent COVID-19 pandemic. The teleclinic service provision was initially started to help our student cohorts attain and complete the required direct contact speechlanguage therapy clinical hours for graduation during the pandemic. It has since evolved to be an integral part of the clinical practicum curriculum and a service delivery model that is here to stay. Although far from perfect, the program hopes to systematically continue our endeavours in telerehabilitation as one of our niche areas, realising the wealth of benefits that this service delivery model has to offer.
