1. Important as a medico legal record. It is also important so clinicians can look back at previous sessions and know how the client performed and what activities were undertaken during the session. This becomes crucial during period where clients may have time off therapy (holidays, sick, christmass etc.) The SLP will then know where they left off after a long period of not seeing the client.

2. They should document all activities. Starting from Initial assessments, intake documents, medical documents, phone meetings, session plans, client goals, data collection during sessions, notes about sessions etc.

1. Documentation is important as it becomes part of the child’s medico-legal file and therefore must be thorough and accurate. These records could be used in court if needed. Documentation also provides a record of the child’s results and progress made to be able to definitively see what is working and what is not. This can be to show yourself, your boss, or the parents that the therapy you are providing is effective.

2. Speech pathologists should document all clinical activities. This should include the child’s case history, assessments given and the child’s results, session plans that include the target and goals, data collection of child’s performance in each session. This data collection should continue all the way up until the child is discharged.

1. Documentation is crucial for many reasons - our documentation is a medicolegal document, therefore we need to provide documentation for medical and legal reasons (e.g. if our info needs to be used in court). Documentation also ensures our safety as SLPs as we we have 'evidence' of everything that happens in a session. Documentation also is our way of tracking progress of a client :)
2. We need to document if the client was present or not in our session, the client's contact details, how the client was feeling e.g. did they seem comfortable, frustrated, tired? We also document our intervention, how we carried out that intervention and our client's responses (e.g. incorrect/correct/accuracy rate (to track progress) as well as the plan for the next session. We also note of if we modified any activities we ran e.g. "reduced visual support"

1. Documentation provides a longitudinal report of changes in therapy. It allows for feedback on the intervention plan and to measure change. It should be used as a rationale for decision making.

2. Patient personal details (including parent names, client family situation, school, DOB), assessments (and results), observations, intervention plans and goals. Discharge information.
