Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

After-Meeting Focus

The record is for reactions after meeting attendance. If no meeting was attended, it should remain incomplete or be redirected to planning.

Reported Experience, Not Meeting Quality

The tool captures the client's experience and barriers; it does not publish reviews, rate meetings, or score fit.

Recurring Themes

Multiple records can be reviewed chronologically to notice repeated barriers or fit themes without scoring them.

Is this a meeting rating tool?

No. It captures a client's reported experience for clinical discussion and does not rate meeting quality.

What if the client had a strong negative reaction?

The reaction is preserved as reported so the practitioner can discuss barriers or expectations without interpreting it as treatment refusal.

Can multiple meetings be recorded?

Yes. Multiple records or separated entries should be stored chronologically so reactions are not conflated.

What gets saved from the demo?

The fixed Meeting Reaction Record tool is saved. Fictional meeting reactions and sample client entries are not saved as real client data.
