Ensure you can access the Forms section and the necessary permissions to create or edit forms.

In Rehab Guru, you can embed files directly into a client’s treatment notes by customising forms. This feature is useful for attaching documents like reports or consent forms to a client's case. Follow these steps to set it up.

Step 1: Cloning and Editing a Form

  • Navigate to Account>Forms.

  • You can create a new form from scratch by clicking Add Template, or you can clone of Rehab Guru's sample forms.

  • To clone a Sample Form click Clone. The cloned form will now appear in your list of forms.

Step 2: Adding a File Upload Field

  • In the form editor, you can add a new entry where you would like to embed file uploads. For example, you may want to upload a file at the beginning of the treatment note.

  • Create a new line, give it an appropriate title (e.g., File Upload), and change the Field Type to File.

  • This will place a file uploader in the treatment notes wherever you need it. You can repeat this process for other sections, such as for adding investigation reports (e.g., X-rays) or consent forms.

  • Once you’ve added the necessary file upload fields, click Save to update the form.

Step 3: Using the Form in Treatment Notes

  • To use the customised form, navigate to the Clients page and select the client you want to create a treatment note for.

  • Click View, then select New Treatment Note.

Creating a new treatment note using the customised form

  • Choose the form you customised (e.g., New Patient Assessment) from the available forms.

  • You will see the file upload fields you added to the form. To upload a file, click on Upload One or More Files, select the file from your device, and click Open.

Uploading files directly into the treatment note using the file upload fields

  • The file will now be embedded within the treatment note, and you can save the note with the attached file.

Following these steps, you can easily embed files into a client’s treatment notes, ensuring that important documents like investigation reports or consent forms are stored alongside the relevant client data.
