When it comes to record-keeping, which one of the following is required?
  1. Two sets of notes for each client
  2. Progress notes, summarizing clinical information
  3. Process notes, summarizing session notes
  4. Complete disclosure to any judicial body
Explanation
Answer - B - Progress notes that detail date, time, and place of service are required. Keeping other portions of the session outside of the session can be complex, but sometimes worth the work it takes to document them. For example, process notes can help the therapist to recall salient details from week to week. Complete disclosure of those notes outside the session could well violate confidentiality.
