A SOAP note (which stands for Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) is a document that's used by healthcare providers to create a patient's chart. It's especially useful for assessing, diagnosing, and treating patients.  

SOAP Notes make it easy to capture visit details for each client, retrieve history, and view progress. Additionally, you can duplicate, add to, or edit client SOAP Notes in an easy fashion.

 

There are two types of SOAP notes you can add:

  • SOAP notes and SOAP Notes Advanced, which contain more in-depth questions and an anatomy chart to pinpoint areas of treatment.
