Patient-Initiated Chat
The caregiver can enable an AI-assisted chat channel for the patient. The patient initiates conversations via WhatsApp, Telegram, or the patient portal. The AI operates within a scope defined by the caregiver.
-
βAllowed topics β e.g. "Mood check-ins, homework questions, appointment logistics β NOT clinical advice"
-
βMaximum messages per day β cap on patient-initiated messages to prevent over-reliance
-
βEscalation markers β caregiver-defined keywords and thresholds; when one appears in a chat, the system executes the escalation rule the caregiver configured and notifies them immediately
-
βResponse hours β define when the AI responds (e.g. 08:00β22:00)
-
βAll chats are logged in the patient's communications history and summarised in the next session brief
