Documentation Support

We use Prompt, an electronic medical record built for therapy practices, with AI-assisted documentation tools designed specifically for physical, occupational, and speech therapy. These tools help draft and organize notes so documentation can be completed during the workday instead of at night.

The treating therapist always reviews, edits, and approves the final note. Nothing is submitted without clinician review, and the tools do not replace clinical judgment.
