Starting Sessions with Members

Start sessions from the Provider Portal, Mobile App or via telephone

Updated over 7 months ago

The Provider Portal and Mobile App are the two primary platforms you can use to conduct sessions with members. For the best experience, we strongly recommend using the Provider Portal on a laptop or desktop.

In specific cases, such as with certain members in Vietnam, sessions may need to be conducted over the telephone.

From Provider Portal

  1. Go to the Bookings tab > Upcoming & Ongoing sub tab

  2. Find the session that is happening soon, and click on Start Session

  3. You'll be redirected to a new tab for the video call

  4. Allow your browser to access your camera and microphone. See Check Your Tech Setup

  5. When ready, click on Join

  6. The member will only be able to enter the call when you're already in. Otherwise, they'll be in a waiting room

  7. At the end of the session, click on Leave, then End meeting for all. You'll be redirected back to the Provider Portal

💡 Tip:

Try starting session ahead of the scheduled time to familiarize yourself with the video call platform and ensure your camera, microphone, and speakers are functioning properly. We recommend starting at least 5 minutes before the scheduled start time for a smooth experience.

From Mobile App

  1. Go to the Care Team tab. You'll only be able to see the immediate next upcoming session

  2. Tap on Join session

  3. Similar to the steps for starting sessions from the Provider Portal, you'll be brought to the video call screen

  4. Allow the app or the browser to access your camera and microphone. See Check Your Tech Setup

  5. When ready, tap on Join

  6. The member will only be able to enter the call when you're already in. Otherwise, they'll be in a waiting room

  7. At the end of the session, click on Leave, then End meeting for all. You'll be redirected back to the Care Team tab

Via telephone

Telephone sessions are introduced as some of our members in Vietnam have limited access to a smartphone and the internet. Sessions done over telephone will only have audio and no video.

  1. Telephone sessions are booked on behalf of a member by our Care Concierge team according to your availability

  2. Once the session is booked,

  3. In the booking confirmation email, the session type will be stated as Phone, with the member's phone number

  4. Before the scheduled time, send an SMS to your client to introduce yourself and ensure they recognize your phone number. This way, they’ll know it’s you when you call for the session

  5. At the scheduled time, proceed with the call and start the session
