Documentation and Reporting: Maintain accurate and up-to-date patient records, documenting evaluations, treatments, progress, and changes in the patient's condition. Ensure compliance with healthcare regulations (e.g., HIPAA) and insurance requirements. Complete required documentation for insurance billing, progress reports, and discharge summaries. Prevention and Wellness: Develop and implement injury prevention programs to help patients reduce the risk of future injuries.
