When should RBTs update their session notes?

RBTs (Registered Behavior Technicians) should update their session notes after every session to ensure accurate documentation of the interventions and progress made during that time. This practice allows for timely reflection on the effectiveness of the strategies used and any modifications that may be necessary for future sessions. By documenting immediately after each session, RBTs can capture details while they are still fresh in their memory, which enhances the quality of the data collected and provides important insights for the supervising BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) when assessing the client's progress. It also aids in continuity of care, ensuring that each session builds effectively on the last. Other options suggest less frequent updates, which can lead to gaps in documentation and hinder the ability to track progress accurately over time.
