Editing patient details
To change a patient's name, date of birth, pronouns, or intake notes, edit them from the patient detail page.
Steps
- Open the patient from the sidebar
- Click Edit at the top right of the patient detail page
- Adjust the fields
- Click Save changes
The form is the same one used to create a new patient.
What's editable directly on the detail page (no Edit button needed)
A few fields can be toggled inline on the detail page without going through the Edit form:
- Therapy modality — pill buttons under the patient's profile info. Click to toggle each modality on/off (you can have multiple). At least one must remain selected.
- Note format — three pills: Default, SOAP, DAP. Default uses your global setting from Settings → Notes.
These changes save immediately. No Save button needed.
What you can't change
- The patient ID — internal identifier, never exposed
- Created at — the date the patient was added; shown as "Patient since"
- Session list — sessions can't be reassigned to a different patient
If you need to fix something structural (wrong patient assigned to a session, e.g.), contact support.
Editing while a session is recording
Don't. The patient's session list updates in real time, and editing patient details mid-recording can confuse the active session. Stop the recording first, then edit.
