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 anywhere in Saskatchewan

Long distances, and the rotation schedules many people work, can make a clinic trip hard to arrange during recovery. After an illness or injury, an employer may ask for written clearance before your next shift or rotation. A secure video or phone visit lets a provider assess you from home.

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

How the assessment works from Saskatchewan

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.

If you are not cleared yet, or need to be seen in person in Saskatchewan

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.

If you need to be examined in person, emergency departments serving the province include those in Saskatoon, Regina and Prince Albert. HealthLine 811 gives free nurse advice when you are not sure 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

Having these ready helps the provider make a decision in one 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
