The objective of this study was to analyze the use and impacts of telehealth in a Specialized Rehabilitation Center (SRC), from the perspective of health professionals, during the covid-19 pandemic. This is an analytical cross-sectional study carried out with health professionals from a SRC. A questionnaire developed by the researchers was used on the sociodemographic profile and perception of the professional in relation to the consultations performed at a distance. Data were analyzed using the SPSS statistical package (26.0). A significance level of 5% (p < 0.05) was adopted. Sample composed of 79 professionals, most of them graduated for more than ten years, with no experience with telehealth. There was a significant relationship between the number of tools used and the degree of difficulty, and the presence of training, with self-satisfaction with the service. The choice of tool is intrinsically linked to availability, skill and task to be performed. Previous training demonstrated a reduction in barriers and job satisfaction.
