Use it during live or near-live CDI observation when target reduction behaviors need to be counted consistently.
The tool does not explain why behaviors occur, generate coaching instructions, score severity, or decide phase readiness automatically.
The tool counts observed caregiver interaction behaviors targeted for reduction during the relevant CDI interaction period.
No. Zero means the behavior was observed as absent; not recorded or unobserved categories are labeled separately.
The trend can support a practitioner readiness judgment, but the system does not make an automatic readiness decision.
