Abstract: This study aimed to explore the experiences and support needs of allied health students undertaking WIL with established and ongoing telehealth services. Semi-structured qualitative interviews of allied health students (n=10) and clinical educators of allied health students (n=8) were undertaken. Data were subjected to reflexive thematic analysis. Four themes were constructed from the data: 1) Additional benefits through telehealth, 2) Adapting for a unique type of practice, 3) Reflecting on students' clinical learning progression, and 4) Modes of supervision and feedback. The features of telehealth that were perceived to be beneficial included the ability of clinical educators to provide covert supervision and immediate feedback without interrupting the session. Limitations of the research include the small sample size. Recommendations are made to support WIL where telehealth services are used, specifically recommending the use of video resources of previously recorded telehealth to support students learning.
