progress and selfmonitoring results
Demonstrates barriers
to patient’s ability to
meet goals

The practice provides
patient with selfmanagement tool
(flowsheet) and then
includes completed selfmanagement tool in
patient’s chart,
demonstrating patient’s
self-management ability.

Next Steps (Homework)
• Download the Record Review Workbook
and start familiarizing yourself with it.
Next Steps (Homework)
• Organize Your Documents
– Create a place on your computer (server or
hard-drive) for all of your documentation
– You should have a folder for each standard
– A checklist can help you determine what you
already have created/saved and what you
need to prepare from scratch
Next Steps (Homework)
– Decide which 3 “Important Conditions”
(e.g. diabetes, asthma, congestive heart
failure, depression, etc) you want to track
over time. One must be related to
unhealthy behaviors, mental health, or
substance abuse.
– Does your practice already follow evidencebased guidelines when caring for patients with
these conditions?
– Are these guidelines documented anywhere?
