Video Visits - Remote Health Care

Shawnee Health Service is now offering Video Visits, through Zoom (a free app), for patient appointments with our providers.
Call (618) 519-9200 to get started.

To prepare for your remote visit you will need:

  • internet access
  • a reliable, easy to access email account
  • Zoom access through an app on your smart phone (recommended) or other mobile device, or through a browser like Chrome on your computer
  • internet camera (usually integrated in your smart phone or other device, please ensure that your camera is on and enabled)
  • internet audio/microphone (usually integrated in your smart phone or other device)
    OR have your phone nearby to dial in to the visit

 

Items that would be handy to have:
