# App patterns

Atomic Workspace projects are built from app patterns that healthcare teams already recognize.

The patterns are not phases. A single project can combine several of them. A recovery tracker might use a patient questionnaire, a nurse queue, a trend chart, a follow-up workflow, and a copilot.

The safest way to build is to add one visible pattern at a time and review it before expanding.

## Provider Views

Provider views help clinicians or care teams review patient context and take action.

Common provider views include:

- patient summaries
- submitted form review
- care-team queues
- trend dashboards
- recommendation review

Provider views should make the next action clear.

## Patient Views

Patient views help patients complete a task, such as intake or follow-up.

Common patient views include:

- intake forms
- symptom check-ins
- PROMs surveys
- medication-change check-ins
- post-visit instructions

Patient views should use plain language and avoid unnecessary questions.

## Forms And Responses

Forms collect structured information.

Submitted responses become useful when reviewers can find them, understand them, and act on them. A form without a care-team review page is usually incomplete.

## Queues

Queues help teams work through many records.

A useful queue answers:

- which row needs attention first
- why it is here
- what action should happen next

## Dashboards And Trends

Dashboards and charts help users see status or change over time.

They should support a decision. If a chart does not change what someone does next, it can wait.

## Copilots

A clinical copilot is an assistant inside the app.

It can summarize context, explain why a patient is in a queue, or help compare patient facts with source-backed literature. It should show limitations and keep clinical judgement with the care team.

## Follow-Up Workflows

A follow-up workflow coordinates steps over time.

It can wait for a response, create a review task, or escalate a missed or abnormal case. Try these workflows with realistic patient examples.

## Voice Form Flows

A voice form flow lets a patient complete an existing questionnaire conversationally.

Use it when conversation makes completion easier. Do not add voice only because it is possible.
