Would you like your notes to follow your client's progress session-to-session?
With Upheal's Golden Thread, your notes reference your client's ongoing progress in relation to their treatment goals.
How does it work?
First, you generate a Treatment Plan. This can be based on up to three sessions you've held with your client. Once you've created a Treatment Plan, your progress notes will refer back to the plan's treatment areas, objectives, and interventions.
Which note templates work with Golden Thread?
All of our preset note templates work with Golden Thread. If you make custom note templates, the individual sections from our note types can also refer to your Treatment Plan.
We're actively working on incorporating Golden Thread into Smart Sections.
Creating a Treatment Plan
Tip: To make generating a Treatment Plan faster and easier, we recommend capturing an intake session with your client first.
Go to your client's profile.
In the Treatment Plan tab, click Create Treatment Plan.
First, we'll generate a Case Snapshot, which provides essential information about your client and their treatment.
Select modalities for the plan. These modalities will be automatically attached to the client's profile and will be pre-filled for their future sessions. Modalities help make your Treatment Plan more accurate to your unique therapeutic approach.
Choose up to 3 sessions on which to base your Case Snapshot, and select modalities.
Please be aware: Upheal can only generate the Case Snapshot based on sessions that have a transcript.
(You can also write the Case Snapshot on your own — Click Enter Case Snapshot manually.)
Once you've chosen sessions, click Continue.
Review the Case Snapshot, and make changes as needed.
Scroll down, and click Generate plan.
In a few minutes, your Treatment Plan will be ready for review. New sessions you hold with this client can now refer to their Treatment Plan.

Will Golden Thread work with older Treatment Plans?
Golden Thread only works with our new/current version of Treatment Plans. If you generated a Treatment Plan with our old system, you'll see it in a tab labeled Legacy treatment plan. To use Golden Thread, generate a new plan in the New treatment plan tab.
We're currently working on a simple way to move older plans to our new system.
