Walk-in doctors may not always be comfortable writing treatment recommendations if they do not know the patient or the patient\u2019s medical history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who have been injured in a motor vehicle accident and do not have a family doctor, it is critical that you be evaluated as soon as possible. Injuries that can lead to permanent issues if not treated right away include traumatic brain injuries, concussions, herniated discs in the spine, whiplash, and broken bones. If you are unable to access a health care professional in a timely matter, this can lead to chronic pain especially after a motor vehicle accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Role Virtual Health Care Can Play<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Virtual health care makes health care more accessible. The injured can communicate with a health care professional over video chat or instant messaging. The injured person does not need to be an existing patient to receive treatment scripts. Virtual care allows the injured person to have a conversation with a doctor from the comfort of their own home. The doctor may issue treatment recommendations which will allow the patient to start physiotherapy, massage therapy, or psychological treatment. A virtual doctor may also be able to provide a note if the injured person is unable to work because of their injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you do not have a family doctor and you are on the \u2018Need a Family Doctor Registry\u2019 you can access a doctor through Nova Scotia Health Authority\u2019s virtual care. If this applies to you, visit the following website to get started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nshealth.ca\/content\/virtualcarens?gclid=CjwKCAiAsNKQBhAPEiwAB-I5zSh0xMXAvNx7lDj2YY28ir7G-itUQolThH-lIKdmEKvj30sUt85YTRoCyogQAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.nshealth.ca\/content\/virtualcarens?gclid=CjwKCAiAsNKQBhAPEiwAB-I5zSh0xMXAvNx7lDj2YY28ir7G-itUQolThH-lIKdmEKvj30sUt85YTRoCyogQAvD_BwE<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Family Focus walk-in clinic also offers virtual care visits for the cost of $45.00 for residents, and $100.00 for non-residents and you do not need to be on the \u2018Need a Family Doctor Registry\u2019 to access a doctor.
