Skilled Nursing Facility Therapy Visitor Form

Streamline Therapy Visitor Management at Your Skilled Nursing Facility

Managing visitors during therapy sessions at skilled nursing facilities requires balancing patient safety, regulatory compliance, and compassionate family involvement. This Skilled Nursing Facility Therapy Visitor Form template is designed specifically for healthcare administrators, rehabilitation coordinators, and nursing staff who need to maintain secure, compliant visitor protocols during physical, occupational, and speech therapy sessions.

Why Paperform for Healthcare Visitor Management?

Paperform provides skilled nursing facilities with a GDPR-compliant (note: not HIPAA-compliant) platform that can be customized to support your facility's visitor management workflows.

• Streamline visitor check-in for therapy sessions with a professional, easy-to-complete digital form
• Collect critical safety information including infection control screening and fall risk awareness
• Coordinate rehabilitation schedules by capturing preferred visit times and therapy types
• Document visitor acknowledgments of facility policies and patient privacy rules
• Maintain organized records of all therapy session visitors for compliance and safety tracking
