Consultations T & Cs
Online Clinic T & Cs: Text
Information about Telehealth Consultations
Telehealth is the use of video call or video conferencing software in order to carry out dietetic consultations remotely. This differs from face-to-face consultation as we will not be in the same room as each other during the consultation.
Some parts of the consultation involving physical examinations (i.e. body weight) may be conducted at your location, and we can discuss these measurements during the consultation.
The main risks related to telehealth consultations include technical difficulties, interruptions, unauthorised access or communication difficulties.
We will ensure that your privacy is protected by ensuring nobody else can hear the consultation and using secure and encrypted software. See our Privacy Policy for more information about this.
If an issue arises with technology which we can not fix during the consultation, we can revert to a phone consultation or rearrange the consultation if needed.
Recording of telehealth sessions in the Noelle Corrigan Nutrition Clinic is not allowed without the written permission of both the client and the Dietitian.
Clients are responsible for the implementation of the advice provided by Dietitians in the Noelle Corrigan Nutrition clinic.
A Dietitian’s role is to translate the science of nutrition into practical information and to advise on food and nutrition-related issues. If issues arise in a session beyond this scope, we will highlight this and can signpost or refer you to the appropriate healthcare professional.
All new clients must complete the consent form we send you at least 24 hours before your initial consultation.
Noelle Corrigan is a member of the Irish Nutrition and Dietetic Institute and registered with CORU. Therefore, clients will be entitled to make a claim from their private health insurer. Receipts can also be used to claim for health expense relief via the Med 1 Form.

Communication Policy
We endeavour to communicate effectively with all of her clients and to answer all genuine messages and emails in a timely manner. Response times will depend on capacity.
In the event of any technical difficulties during consultations, we may suggest restarting devices, trying a different device or a phone call as a secure back-up option.
Our Dietitians have a duty of care to contact relevant authorities if you disclose information which suggests that you may be at risk of harming others.
We do not respond to offensive, attacking or irrelevant messages, or to comments messages with no connection to nutrition or dietetics treatment.
We do not provide personal dietary advice to anybody via social media platforms, including current clients.
