How to Assign Patient Pronouns in Wavo Health

Assigning pronouns ensures Wavo Health’s clinical notes reflect your patient’s preferences accurately. Follow these steps to set pronouns.

Updated over a week ago

Step 1: Start a New Encounter

  • Log in to Wavo Health and click "New Encounter" from the dashboard.

  • Select or assign a patient for the session using the "Assign to Patient" button.

Step 2: Select Patient Pronouns

  • Above the transcription area, find the "Select Pronouns" dropdown (near "Assign to Patient").

  • Choose the patient’s preferred pronouns: "he/him," "she/her," or "they/them."

  • The selection applies to the session and saves for future encounters with saved patients.

Best Practice Tip: Confirm pronouns with your patient or check their records to ensure accuracy.

Step 3: Review Notes with Correct Pronouns

  • Speak naturally during the session; Wavo Scribe will transcribe and generate notes using the selected pronouns.

  • Check the "Clinical Note" tab to confirm the pronouns are applied correctly.

  • Edit if needed, but Wavo does not yet learn pronouns from edits—manually set them each time if necessary.

  • observations and follow-up suggestions specific to the encounter.
