在安大略，其做法包括儿童，农村医生进行了调查，他们的认识，态度和使用远程保健服务的儿童和年轻人在他们的地区。在95名农村医生中，70人完成并返回了调查的远程保健部分（74%的答复率）。调查包括14个问题。只有27%的应答者知道可用的视频会议服务。报告通过视频会议将患者转诊到各种精神卫生服务的医生比例为0- 24%。报告说他们将通过视频会议转诊患者的医生比例为55- 92%。通过视频会议将病人转诊到精神卫生服务机构的主要好处是减少了旅行时间，并在离家更近的地方提供了护理。不明确的转诊模式和技术妥协被视为将患者转诊到视频会议的限制。接触农村人口和改善接触病人的机会被视为执业的好处，而不发达的薪酬程序是主要的限制因素。推广对于成功实施儿童和青年远程保健服务可能很重要。
Rural physicians in Ontario, whose practice included children, were surveyed on their awareness, attitudes and use of telemental health services for children and young people in their region. Of 95 rural physicians, 70 completed and returned the telehealth section of the survey (74% response rate). The survey comprised 14 questions. Only 27% of responders were aware of the available videoconferencing services. The proportion of physicians who reported having referred patients for the various mental health services through videoconferencing was 0-24%. The proportion of physicians who reported that they would refer patients through videoconferencing was 55-92%. Reduced travel time and care provided closer to home were seen as the primary benefits of referring patients to mental health services through videoconferencing. Unclear referral patterns and technology compromises were seen as limitations of referring patients to videoconferencing. Access to rural populations and improved access to patients were seen as benefits to practice, and undeveloped remuneration procedures as the primary limitation. Promotion may be important to successful implementation of telemental health services for children and young people.
