Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
Labels Are Practitioner-Provided
The product may store local labels if the practitioner uses them, but it does not supply a complete coding manual or invent code categories.
Comparison Limits
Comparison preserves original event sequences and compares like fields only where records contain comparable entries.
Does the tool include a coding manual?
No. Exact intervention and response code categories are unresolved; the tool can store practitioner-provided labels without inventing a coding taxonomy.
Can one response include multiple family members?
Yes. A response entry should allow multiple actors when more than one family member is involved.
Does the record infer whether an intervention was effective?
No. The tool does not infer effectiveness, causality, or clinical conclusions.
Can events be reordered after entry?
Yes. Entries can be corrected or reordered while preserving the final observed sequence.
