For speech therapy practices

A child's language development — described calmly, not reconstructed mid-appointment

Parents complete the detailed history form at home, when they have time to think. You receive first words, multilingualism and prior findings structured — before the first appointment.

Why intake often stays patchy

History-taking with a restless child

While you ask the parents about pregnancy, first words and hearing results, the child wants attention. The parents answer rushed and incomplete — understandable, but a problem for assessment.

Milestones from memory

"When did she say her first words?" — under pressure, nobody remembers precisely. At home parents can check the child health record, ask their partner, think. In the appointment they guess.

Prior findings missing at the first session

Audiology results, ENT report, prescription — all sitting in a folder at home. You start assessment without the documents that would complete the picture, and chase them for weeks.

How the full story reaches you

  1. 1

    Set up a detailed parent questionnaire

    Language development, milestones, multilingualism in the family, hearing and ENT history, prescription details, upload for prior findings. Set up once — AI generation drafts the base form in 30 seconds.

  2. 2

    Parents answer at home — no time pressure

    In the evening, once the child is asleep: one question per screen, draft saving any time. Parents can fetch the health record, confer, and upload findings as photos. A detailed form is allowed to be detailed here.

  3. 3

    You start assessment with the full picture

    Before the first appointment you read the full developmental history in five minutes. Appointment time belongs to the child: observation, rapport, first assessment — instead of a forty-minute parent interview.

Features for speech therapy intake

Upload for prior findings

Attach prescriptions, audiology and ENT findings as photos or PDFs — everything arrives before the appointment.

Conditional logic

Stuttering questions only for fluency disorders, the multilingualism block only when relevant — the form stays manageable.

Save & resume

Parents complete it in stages — start in the evening, finish at the weekend, same link.

Hosted in Germany

Children's health data deserves special protection: German servers, DPA, no US cloud.

Multilingual (DE/EN)

Questions from speech therapy practice

Data about children — what do I need to consider legally?
Information about language development is health data under Art. 9 GDPR, with heightened protection for children. Consent is given by the legal guardians — exactly the people completing the form. Questee covers the technical side: encrypted transfer, hosting in Germany, tenant-isolated storage and the Art. 28 GDPR DPA for your records.
We have a PDF form on our website — is that not enough?
The PDF requires a printer, a scanner and discipline — so it usually arrives at the appointment, half completed. An online form opens on the phone, validates required fields, hides irrelevant sections and accepts photos of findings directly. You get structured data instead of handwriting to type up.
Why not Google Forms — it is free, after all?
Because a child's health data would sit with a US corporation — with unclear third-country transfers and no practice-grade DPA process. As the practice owner you are liable for the choice of processor. Questee hosts exclusively in Germany and ships the data processing agreement; you can say that transparently to parents too.
What belongs in a paediatric speech therapy history form?
Typical blocks: pregnancy and birth, motor and language milestones (first words, two-word sentences), hearing history and middle-ear effusions, multilingualism in the family, nursery situation, previous therapies and findings, prescription details, and the parents' concerns in their own words. Conditional logic shows special blocks (stuttering, myofunction) only when needed.
Does the form replace the history conversation?
No — it prepares it. Professional interpretation, follow-up questions and the relationship with the parents remain your work in the appointment. The difference: you ask targeted follow-ups instead of starting from zero, and the parents have thought their answers through calmly rather than improvising under pressure.
Does this work for adult patients too?
Yes — simply create a second form, for instance for voice disorders, post-stroke aphasia (often completed by relatives) or swallowing disorders. You can run as many forms as you like and send the matching link per patient group.
Does Questee also handle prescription billing?
No. Health-insurance billing stays with your practice management software — Questee deliberately promises no integration there. What Questee does: collect prescription data and the prescription photo in a structured way, so you can transfer it, verified, into your records.
