Clinical content is reviewed for accuracy and scope. TelePlus Care appointments go ahead only when a doctor agrees it is the right call, after a real assessment, and the doctor will explain the next step if virtual care is not the right fit.

Going back to work in Riverview

Plenty of people here commute, and adding a clinic trip on top of that is hard while you recover. If your employer wants a fitness for work note before you come back, the assessment can happen by video or phone from home. The provider looks at your recovery, your job and the travel that comes with it.

A return to work certificate is not the same as a regular doctor's note. A note explains why you were away. The certificate confirms you are fit to go back, gives your return date and, when needed, lists temporary limits on your duties, such as lighter work or shorter shifts.

  • After a longer illness or an injury
  • After surgery or a hospital stay
  • Before going back to safety-sensitive work, such as driving, operating equipment or heavy lifting
  • When your employer or benefits plan sends its own fitness for work form

Return to Work Certificate in Riverview: Frequently Asked Questions

Two parts: the $80 assessment visit and the $60 certificate, which you pay only if the provider clears you.

No. Clearing someone for work is a medical decision, so a full assessment visit always comes first, and the certificate cannot be guaranteed in advance.

The $60 fee is not charged. The provider tells you the reason and the next step, such as more recovery time, a follow-up or an in-person assessment.

If it matters for your recovery, yes. Tell the provider how you get to work and what your job involves, especially driving, lifting or long shifts. They use that to decide whether you are ready to go back, and you are only charged the certificate fee if you are approved.

No. A doctor's note covers time you were away; a return to work certificate confirms you are ready to go back and requires a full assessment. If you only need the missed days covered, book a doctor's note.

Yes, when the provider decides they are needed. The certificate states your return date and can list temporary limits, such as lighter duties or reduced hours.

No. TelePlus Care is a private virtual clinic, so the $80 assessment visit is not billed to NB Medicare. The $60 certificate fee is separate and is charged only if the provider approves your return to work.

Choose from the current appointment times shown in the booking form. Clinic hours are Monday to Friday 9 AM to 5 PM and Saturday 10 AM to 4 PM, Mountain Time, and availability changes with demand. You meet a Canadian licensed provider by phone or secure video, and the provider decides after the assessment whether you are cleared, so approval is never guaranteed.

Because care is virtual, TelePlus Care serves patients across New Brunswick, including Riverview, Saint John, Dieppe, Edmundston, and Fredericton, and other communities — anywhere in the province with a phone or internet connection.
