When It Is Used
Use it when family strain or support capacity needs to be monitored repeatedly rather than addressed as a one-time concern.
Family Support / Burden Check-In
Family Support / Burden Check-In is a ready-to-send longitudinal check-in for practitioners monitoring family support capacity, burden, and support needs in family psychoeducation. It helps practitioners collect repeated family reports over time, review changes in strain, identify follow-up needs, and protect recovery-supporting involvement.

Follow-Up Use
Practitioner review may point to education, problem solving, adjusted support expectations, or continued monitoring, but these remain practitioner decisions.
Important Limitations
The tool does not include unsupported burden scales, caregiver diagnoses, family-capacity judgments, or automated intervention recommendations.
Does this tool include a caregiver burden score?
No. Exact scales are unresolved unless supplied; the tool records reported support and burden information over time.
Can more than one family member complete it?
Yes. A respondent roster can keep different family members' reports visible without merging them as one fact.
What happens if a check-in is skipped?
A skipped check-in appears as missing data, not as low burden or no support need.
What is saved after the demo?
The check-in tool and practitioner configuration are saved. Fictional respondents and sample check-in data are not saved as real client data.
