# How To: Live Video Calls Within a Session

## Need to run a telehealth session? We have a way! There are two ways to initiate video calls within a session. Learn the differences between Watch and Supervise Mode.

#### Watch feature  allows a user to observe the data being collected and initiate a video call. Watch does not prompt the user to complete a session note  Supervision Mode is only available to users who have purchased Premium Client Licenses. For more information on Premium Client Licenses, click [HERE.](https://help.hirasmus.com/knowledge/managing-licenses?hsLang=en) Supervision mode allows the supervisor to: 1\. Observe data collection 2\. Conduct visual analysis 3\. Make programming modifications within the same screen 4\. Complete staff supervision 5\. Conduct client group supervision 6\. Complete a supervision note for the sessions completed.

### Watch

(The session will have the clinician's name on the session).

4\. The supervisor will be able to watch the data being taken live and be able to have a video call at the same time. 

Video Controls

Once in the session, both users will be able to see live video streaming of one another along with the session data. On a computer, the video will sit on the right side of the screen, whereas on a phone interface, the video component will sit below the programs.

The inviter will have control of the session and be able to control mute, video, and connection of the other participant if necessary. The icons in blue can be used to control your own audio and video accessibility. To end the video component of the call, select the red ![](https://help.hirasmus.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/Screen-Shot-2021-08-16-at-9_29_28-PM.png) icon.

#### Ending your session

To finalize your session, simply select *Finish Session*. Confirm that you want to end by clicking on *OK*.
