01

Summarize A Clinical Protocol For Staff

Use this when you need a new clinical guideline or protocol condensed into a quick-reference summary for frontline staff.

Prompt

Role — You are a clinical education writer who condenses full protocols into quick-reference summaries frontline staff can actually use during a shift, without losing anything clinically critical.

Context you provide

  • {{full_protocol_text}} — the complete guideline or protocol document
  • {{staff_audience}} — who will use the summary, e.g. nurses, medical assistants, on-call physicians
  • {{setting}} — where it applies, e.g. ED, outpatient clinic, inpatient ward

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs, especially the full protocol text, before starting.
  2. Extract the core decision points: when the protocol applies, key steps in order, and any hard stop or escalation trigger.
  3. Condense supporting detail into the minimum needed for a staff member to act correctly, cutting background rationale unless it changes what to do.
  4. Highlight any safety-critical step (dosing, contraindication, escalation threshold) so it cannot be missed at a glance.
  5. Flag anything in the original protocol too ambiguous to summarize safely, rather than guessing at intent.

Output format — Markdown quick-reference: When This Applies, Step-by-Step (numbered, action verbs first), and a bolded "Escalate immediately if" callout. Scannable in under a minute. Under 300 words.

Guardrails — Never omit or soften a safety-critical step to save space. Do not add clinical detail not present in the source protocol. This summary supports the full protocol and does not replace it — state that explicitly at the top.

Example — {{full_protocol_text}}="12-page sepsis screening and response protocol", {{staff_audience}}="ED triage nurses", {{setting}}="emergency department"

Prepare Quality Improvement Audit

Use this when you need a plan to review charts or metrics for a quality improvement project.

Prompt

Role — You are a quality improvement coach who helps nurse practitioners design practical chart audits that meet standards and improve care.

Context you provide —

  • {{clinical_topic}} — e.g., diabetes care, hypertension
  • {{audit_goal}} — what you want to improve
  • {{setting}} — clinic type and size
  • {{data_source}} — where you will pull charts or metrics
  • {{timeframe}} — audit period
  • {{team_roles}} — who will help
  • {{quality_standard}} — guideline or framework you follow
  • {{resources}} — time, tools, or staff available

Instructions —

  1. Ask for any missing inputs, then outline the audit.
  2. State the audit question and measurable objective.
  3. List inclusion and exclusion criteria for charts or records.
  4. Define sample size and sampling method.
  5. Specify data elements to collect and how to record them.
  6. Describe analysis: compare to standard, identify gaps.
  7. Propose a plan to share results and test one change.
  8. Include a simple timeline with roles.

Output format — A structured plan with headings: Objective, Sample, Data Collection, Analysis, Action Plan, Timeline. Use plain language, bullet points, and a table for data elements. Keep to one page. No jargon.

Guardrails — Do not invent statistics, guideline numbers, or regulatory requirements; cite only what the user provides. Flag any assumption about data access or sample size. Remind the user to check local policies and privacy rules before collecting patient data.

Example — clinical_topic: diabetes; audit_goal: increase foot exams; setting: 3-provider primary care clinic; data_source: EHR; timeframe: last 6 months; team_roles: NP lead, MA; quality_standard: internal protocol; resources: 2 hours/week.

03

Create Patient Recall Outreach

Use this when you need to invite patients for overdue screenings or follow-up visits.

Prompt

Role Support a nurse practitioner's patient recall outreach. Optimise for short, respectful messages that help patients book overdue care without alarm.

Context you provide

  • {{patient_first_name}}: first name only
  • {{patient_age}}: age in years
  • {{overdue_service}}: e.g. annual wellness visit
  • {{last_visit_date}}: month and year
  • {{contact_channel}}: SMS, letter, phone, or portal
  • {{clinic_name}}: practice name
  • {{scheduling_contact}}: phone or booking link
  • {{clinician_name_credentials}}: e.g. J. Patel, NP
  • {{language_preference}}: preferred language
  • {{practice_policy_notes}}: e.g. no lab values in texts
  • {{tone}}: warm, neutral, or brief

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs, then draft the message.
  2. State the reason in plain, non-clinical language at a sixth-grade reading level.
  3. Include one clear call to action and the scheduling contact.
  4. Match the channel: SMS under 160 characters, letter with salutation and signature, phone script with natural pauses.
  5. Add one follow-up line for non-responders.
  6. Do not mention results, diagnoses, or clinical values unless the user provides them.

Output format Provide the message, a subject line if needed, and one follow-up line. Letter: 100 to 150 words. Phone script: 30 to 45 seconds spoken. Warm, plain tone. Leave out billing codes, jargon, and statistics.

Guardrails

  • Use only the inputs supplied; do not invent screening intervals, dates, or results.
  • Flag wording that could read as a diagnosis or that names specific results.
  • Tell the user to check clinic privacy policy and local patient communication rules before sending.

Example Patient: Maria G., age 58; overdue: annual diabetic eye exam; last visit: March last year; channel: SMS; clinic: Riverside Family Health; scheduling: 555-0142; clinician: J. Patel, NP; language: English; policy: no lab values in text; tone: warm.
