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 Sudbury
Mining rotations around Sudbury mean paperwork often has to be in before the next shift begins. After an illness or injury, an employer may ask for a provider's confirmation that you are fit to return to your usual duties. The assessment is done by video or phone, so you can take care of it from home before your rotation starts.
This is different from an ordinary doctor's note. A note covers the days you missed; a return to work certificate states that you are fit to resume your job, sets your return date and, if the provider thinks it is needed, lists temporary limits such as lighter duties 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
How the assessment works from Sudbury
Every certificate starts with a full assessment visit. The provider decides after hearing about your illness or injury, your recovery and your duties at work.
- Step 1: Book a visit online and choose "Return to Work Certificate".
- Step 2: Meet the provider by secure video or phone. They review your illness or injury, your recovery and your job duties.
- Step 3: The provider decides whether you are fit to return, and whether any restrictions are needed.
- Step 4: If you are approved, we email you a secure link to pay the $60 certificate fee.
- Step 5: Once it is paid, your signed certificate is emailed to you.
What it costs in Sudbury
There are two separate charges, and you only pay the second one if you are cleared. The assessment visit is billed like a regular TelePlus Care appointment.
- Assessment visit: $80.
- Return to work certificate: $60, charged only if the provider approves your return to work.
- Not approved: no certificate fee. The provider explains why and what to do next.
If you are not cleared yet, or need to be seen in person near Sudbury
Sometimes it is too early to go back, or the provider needs more information first, such as a specialist report, test results or an in-person exam. In that case you are not charged the $60 certificate fee, and the provider explains the next step. That may be more time off, a follow-up visit, or seeing a doctor in person.
Health Sciences North serves the city and the Greater Sudbury region, both for an in-person exam the provider may ask for and for emergencies. Health811 (dial 811) gives free nurse advice if you are unsure where to go.
- Call 911 for chest pain, trouble breathing, signs of a stroke or heavy bleeding
- Online visits are not for emergencies or for injuries that need a hands-on exam
What to have ready for your visit
With this information on hand, most decisions can be made in a single visit.
- The reason you were off work and when it started
- Any hospital, specialist or test reports you have
- A short description of your job duties, especially physical or safety-sensitive tasks
- Your employer's form, if they gave you one
