Paper is Passé – Digital Does Away With It All Together
Thanks to Apple’s Magic Pencil and New Generation iPad, from today I’m moving to digital record-keeping. This is the final step on my journey to going paperless!
Did You Know?
- For each new client consultation, I complete a client consultation form and a GDPR form
- For every treatment, I complete a treatment record
- By law, these forms must be held securely for up to 8 years
That’s a lot of paperwork to create, file and store in a locked filing system!
So I’m delighted that technology has advanced to the point that I can now replace my paper forms with digital alternatives.
Even better, I can complete them during treatments by simply writing directly on my new iPad with Apple’s Magic Pencil.
The benefits are:
- Respect for the environment
- Improved data security
- Easier data retrieval
So, what happens next?
Paperless Records for New Clients
On your first visit I will create a new file for you. Into this file I will save your client consultation form, GDPR consent form and the record of your first treatment. For each subsequent treatment, I will add a new record and save it to your personal file.
All data will be collected on my password protected iPad and backed up on Feet First Reflexology’s encrypted One Drive Account.
Rest assured that digital record keeping is totally secure and fully GDPR compliant.
What’s more, your data belongs to you, and you can request copies of your records at any time.
For more information, please see the Feet First Reflexology Privacy Policy.
Paperless Records for Existing Clients
From Monday 13th September, I will make digital records of new treatments.
I will not transfer previous paper records to a digital format but will keep them in accordance with GDPR as set out in the Feet First Reflexology Privacy Policy.
As you know, your data belongs to you.
Naturally, you can request copies of your paper and digital records at any time.
Summary
I work hard to make your visit to Feet First Reflexology, stress-free.
Now that all aspects of your experience from booking to session records to payment are digital, you can focus on one thing only: enjoying your treatment.
Feet First Reflexology: your sanctuary to relax, rebalance and restore.
