  • Summary

    The slow development of telepsychiatry in the pre-Covid-19 world, mainly driven by the increases in mobile devices, intergenerational changes and the digital divide is described. The dramatic changes in psychiatric practice following the Covid-19 pandemic are documented, with case histories from five countries as well as extensive descriptions of changes in the United States. Finally, lessons learned from the move to telepsychiatry, including changes to psychiatric practice involving hybrid care, the use of virtual home visits and asynchronous consultations, are summarised as directions for future psychiatric practice.
