Free Clinical Hours Logbook Software Updated
For students as well as mental health professionals in practice, our free clinical hours logbook software makes recording client contact hours almost (almost!) fun. The free logbook, newly updated for the coming year, automatically calculates total hours spent with each client each month, plus total clinical hours over the course of a year.
Every student and mental health professional in practice knows the importance of regularly and accurately recording clinical contact hours for purposes of training, accreditation, or billing.
Our popular (and free) clinical hours logbook software takes some of the tedium out of this task — it almost (OK, not quite) makes it fun to watch the hours getting tallied up automatically as you enter the dates you’ve worked with clients. The logbook has just been freshly updated with new versions for the coming calendar year 2005 and the financial year beginning April 2005; in addition, a single .zip archive is now available which includes both of these updated logbooks, plus one covering the academic year running from Autumn of 2004.
All it takes to use the logbook is to enter some identifier for each client — a number, letter, or some other designator — and then record the dates each client attends in the logbook’s weekly columns. Monthly and yearly hours totals are generated automatically, and the totals hours spent with each individual client is calculated separately. An extra sheet is provided for tallying hours spent in supervision. The spreadsheet can be modified easily to suit each clinician’s particular needs, by adding or subtracting columns as needed, but for convenience several different versions are available to correspond with different choices for recording periods (i.e., calendar year, academic year, financial year, etc.).
Of course, full instructions — just in case you need them — are available on the clinical hours logbook page.
