Patient concern
“I would like someone to explain what happened.”

Simulated and illustrative. Pathscription records whether wellbeing has been considered, discussed and followed up. It does not assess, diagnose or decide what support is clinically appropriate.

Not every woman passes through every step. Support may be declined, a referral may not be indicated, support may be provided by a different professional, or follow-up may happen through another service. The purpose is workflow completion, not clinical decision-making.

Patient response
“Would like further support”

Follow-up support review

Status: Outstanding · created automatically because the woman asked for further support.

A recorded discussion is a workflow event, not a diagnosis, assessment or therapy session. Fictional example only.

Recovery workflow actions

Support actions behave like every other Pathscription action: timestamped, assigned, acknowledged, completed, documented, escalated where configured and preserved at handover.

Referral sent — acknowledgement pending

Simulated referral shows as sent but the receiving service has not confirmed receipt.

Pathscription does not determine which professionals should be involved. It tracks whether clinically agreed support and follow-up have been actioned.

Outstanding care workflow item

  • Referral: Pending acknowledgement
  • Follow-up: No owner assigned

Discharge is not blocked. Outstanding items survive into the post-discharge workflow so they remain owned and visible.

Simulated patient information. Pathscription does not diagnose, does not determine that any treatment is required and does not replace a mental health professional.
