How to Contribute

Step 1: Prepare Your Content

Before contributing, make sure you have:

• A revised documentation note that follows ethical and privacy best practices
• A short reflection (2 to 3 sentences) on what you changed and why it matters

Example Reflection Prompt: “I revised the note to remove identifying details and added language that better respects the resident’s dignity. This change helps promote privacy and supports ethical documentation in dementia care.”
