Quantitative Data added to Smart Notes
Quantitative data has been added to Smart Notes. When discussing numbers of things such as steps to exercises, these will be displayed in the transcript of a session. For example: If you are participating in a 4-7-8 breathing exercise with a client and you count the seconds along side the client, that count and the steps will appear as a part of the transcript.
Other Enhancements to Smart Notes
The term patient has been changed to client when using Smart Notes. Smart Notes specific templates are now easier differentiate from regular notes templates.
