Meeting Reports:
These can be used to see the current presentation of a client along with what you and/or team members have been doing to help them achieve their goals. See what is working and what is not and find out why.
As the lead clinician of a team, you can use this report as the focus of your MDT meetings to discuss your clients progress and ongoing rehabilitation needs. It will show you all the clients’ goals, all the objectives the team are working on to help the client reach their goals and can show any comments/updates team members have made.
Reports for your whole team
Individual clinicians and therapists can produce their own reports outlining the objectives and goals they are currently working on and evidencing all the steps that they been doing to help the client achieve these.

What is the purpose of patient journey mapping?
Rather than thinking of the patient experience as an abstract or idealized concept – or limiting it to the in-person interactions between patient and physician – patient journey maps allow healthcare professionals to understand the patient experience holistically. Mapping reveals every facet of interaction that takes place over the course of the patient’s relationship with the health system, including appointment reminders, phone calls with admitting staff, prescription reminders, physical care, and with the right analytics even points in the clinical journey that happen out-of-network.
Since health systems tend to be large and, in some cases, disjointed, the patient journey from initial outreach to continued care is rarely a perfectly seamless experience. It can be easy for seemingly minor details or points of contact to be forgotten: For instance, when a patient cancels an initial consultation due to a work conflict but receives no follow up to reschedule. In this example, the health system loses a patient unnecessarily, perhaps to a nearby competitor.
Patient journey maps reveal these inconsistencies and gaps that are detrimental to both the patient and the health system. The cross-functional team of marketers, business development professionals, operations, etc. can come up with actionable solutions to fill these gaps (often with automated solutions), keeping more patients engaged and improving overall satisfaction.
