What makes this useful
Details become harder to remember as the interval between a visit and a review grows.
Distinguish the first shift, the gap, and the second shift in plain words. A consistent label such as “split shift” helps connect the day you remember with the visit you saved.
A practical way to begin
- Open the 90-day view to see the available saved entries.
- Use search or custom dates to make that longer list manageable.
- Repeated occasions of split shifts can share a “split shift” label. Combine that search with the dates of one occasion to avoid mixing unrelated visits from the available 90 days.
An example of useful context
“Between the two shifts, during the afternoon gap.”
Which part of the split shift contains the visit you want to review?
Use your own wording and the details you remember. A short, recognizable note makes it easier to find the visit later.
