Description
Mohammad Al-Wardat and colleagues surveyed rehab specialists on remote therapy in Jordan in a 2026 study. Telerehabilitation delivers therapy by phone or video, which could widen access in lower-income settings. Success hinges on what frontline specialists know and accept, so the team asked three hundred of them.
The group held equal shares of physical, occupational, and speech therapists. Most knew of remote therapy, and over half said their workplace used it. Yet only about one in seven used it regularly. Three quarters saw time and cost savings. Top barriers were low public awareness, poor internet, provider reluctance, thin staff training, and privacy worries. Few judged it equal to in-person care.
