Tracking Data

Suggestion: As we discussed day before yesterday, you may find it helpful to chart a patient's progress via a plot graph or chart.

Another use of this sort of graph is feedback for the patient, assuming that progress is being made.

I used to track my Goodwill Industry clients' productivity on individualized charts set at each person's work station. Made a huge difference in motivation, believe it or not.
