<iframe width="256" height="192" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ph2UxVkdXFg?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen title="Running a session" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; border: none;"></iframe>

#### Get started

From your client's homepage, find the session you would like to start and select **\[Start Session\]**

#### Preparation Page

On the preparation page, you can: 

- Review message from the supervisor, if applicable
- Click each program to review the instructions, targets, history, and program modifications
- Scroll down to view all program modifications

Once you are prepared to start session, scroll down and select **\[Start Session\]** or \[![Slide2-2](https://help.hirasmus.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Slide2-2.jpg?width=20&height=20&name=Slide2-2.jpg)\]

If you are running a telehealth session, click on **\[Start Video Session\]**

#### Timers

The session timer will automatically begin at the start of the session. This can be viewed in the top left

- Timers for frequency programs have the option to start with the session timer (set up on the program page). If not, they can be started by clicking them
- Timers for duration programs can be clicked to start and stopped

#### Pinned Programs

Any targets that have been pinned by the session creator will appear on the top of the screen, along the blue bar

#### Switching Programs

There are 3 different ways to switch between programs.

- You can run through programs sequentially in the given order, selecting **\[Next Program\]**at the bottom when you are ready to move on.

#### Recording ABC Data

To collect ABC data during a session, click on the icon with 2 people on the top right of your screen and the Behavior Reduction page will appear. 

The timer can be used, or start and end times of behavior episodes can be manually entered. 

Select behaviors within each category that has been set up using the drop-down boxes. Click on *Save Entry* below to record the episode and continue with your session. You can also type new responses into each field

#### Undo

Record the wrong prompt level? No problem! Click the undo button and adjust as needed. Each program has an undo button specific to that program

![](https://help.hirasmus.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-12-2025-09-33-27-1327-PM.png?width=195&height=129&name=image-png-Sep-12-2025-09-33-27-1327-PM.png)

#### Pause your session

In the event that you need to pause the session, simply click on the running session timer on the top left of your screen. Select *OK* when you are ready to resume.

#### Program Notes

Record any program-specific notes at the bottom of a program during your session. Photos can be added to supplement your notes by selecting the camera icon. Videos can also be added here by selecting the video icon.

![](https://help.hirasmus.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-12-2025-09-33-49-8383-PM.png?width=670&height=145&name=image-png-Sep-12-2025-09-33-49-8383-PM.png)

#### Ending your session

To finalize your session, simply select **\[Finish Session\]** on the bottom. Select **\[Finish the client's session for the day\]** (unless your organization is using handoff options), and select **\[OK\]**

If you have a note template attached to the session, the note will automatically pop up for you to complete the note. Once you finish the note, you will be brought to a summary of your session's data

If you don't have a note template attached to the session, you will automatically be brought to a summary of your session's data. Here you can review the data taken during the session and review the session note.

At the end, you will have the opportunity to sign and to request a signature.
