Prompts for Healthcare/Medical Professionals

Prompts can help tailor your summary to your specific role in Children’s Services or Education Social Work. To get the best results, we recommend keeping prompts specific and concise.

Below is a comprehensive list of prompts you may find useful:

Editing

• Change the tone of the patient chart entry to be supportive. Ensure it is not judgmental.
• Rewrite the 'Patient Education' section. Use language appropriate for a 10-year-old patient.
• Condense the discharge summary paragraph. Include only key actions and outcomes.
• Expand the rationale for the patient's transfer to a new facility/service. Focus this expansion on the 'Assessment' section.
• Check the entire consent form/patient guide for professional jargon. Replace all jargon with plain English.
• Change all instances of the patient's name to a pseudonym. State that this is for training purposes.
• Format the 'Family History' section. Present the information as a clear bulleted list.
• Update the referral report to reflect the new legislative guidance on data sharing.
• Shorten the 'Financial Concerns' section. Present the main issues in three bullet points.
• Change ‘Next steps’ to address the patient/caregiver. Ensure the tone is respectful and non-confrontational.
• Transform the full medical assessment into an executive summary. The summary must have five concise points for a manager.
• Change the perspective of the 'Patient's Feedback' section. Convert it from third person to first person.
• Review the handover note for unnecessary detail. Make the entire report more succinct.

Communication

• Develop a script for an initial phone call. Explain our role to the newly referred patient.
• Write a statement in the style of a press release. The topic is the successful clinical trial/new protocol launch.
• Generate minutes for the last Morbidity and Mortality (M&M) conference. Focus only on actions and deadlines.
• Draft a formal response to the complaint. Maintain a professional and empathetic tone.
• Create an invitation for a workshop. Target nursing staff/allied health professionals and the topic is managing patient challenging behavior.
• Summarize the latest patient privacy/billing legislation changes. This summary is for a team briefing email.
• Write a handover note for an on-call physician/nurse. The note should cover the high-priority patient and be brief.

Best Practice for Writing Prompts

• Be clear about what you want included

• Avoid long or complex instructions

• Focus on one request at a time where possible

Example:
Instead of:
“Make this shorter and clearer and remove repetition and structure it better”

Try:
“Summarise into concise bullet points under the headings: Background, Current Concerns, Actions.”

The more precise your instruction, the better the output.
