Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
What It Captures
The tool captures client-entered red flags, client-entered green flags, optional item context if provided, and practitioner notes kept separate from reported content.
Limits
The tool does not produce a risk score, severity rating, automated interpretation, clinical conclusion, or predictive safety determination.
Does Red and Green Flags score a client’s risk?
No. Red and Green Flags organizes reported warning signs and protective factors; it does not score risk, predict danger, or assign severity levels.
Can a client submit only red flags or only green flags?
Yes. One-sided work can be saved and reviewed as incomplete, with the missing contrast clearly shown.
Can the practitioner change the categories?
No. The product specification supports the fixed Red Flags and Green Flags contrast, not additional categories or renamed labels.
Is sample demo content saved to the practitioner’s account?
No. Saving keeps the tool itself, while fictional demo entries and temporary sample history are not saved as real client data.
