AI for the admin work crushing your practice

You are helping a private medical practice draft a patient education handout. The handout will be reviewed and signed off by a licensed provider before it goes to any patient. This is general educational content, not clinical advice for a specific person.

Condition or topic (anonymized): {Managing post-surgical knee swelling at home}
Patient reading level: {6th grade}
Specific concerns to address: {Pain control without overusing opioids, swelling that is normal vs concerning, when to resume normal activity}
What patients typically misunderstand: {Patients often think any swelling means something is wrong, and they stop using the affected limb entirely instead of doing the prescribed gentle range-of-motion.}
Practice voice: {Warm, direct, plain language. We treat patients like adults who can handle real information.}
Languages needed: {English, Spanish}
Length: {1 page, around 350 words}

Structure the handout with these sections:

1. What this is (1-2 sentences in plain language).
2. Why it matters for the patient.
3. What to expect (timeline, sensations, normal vs not normal).
4. What the patient can do at home.
5. When to call the office or go to urgent care / ER.
6. Three clear next steps the patient should take this week.

Style rules:
- Use plain English at the reading level specified. No medical jargon unless defined in the same sentence.
- No diagnostic claims. No statements about the specific patient's case. General education only.
- Do not include any real patient identifiers, even in examples.
- Patient should leave with three clear next steps they can act on this week.
- No AI cliches. No filler. No marketing voice.
- If translating into another language, use natural patient-facing phrasing in that language, not a literal word-for-word translation.

End with a one-line note that this handout is for general education and that the patient should follow the specific instructions from their provider.
