Add SOAP Notes - Vagaro Pro app

A SOAP note (which stands for Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) is a document that healthcare providers use to create a patient's chart. It's beneficial 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.

There are three types of SOAP notes you can add:

• SOAP Notes Face adds a facial anatomy chart
• SOAP Notes
• SOAP Notes Advanced adds an anatomy chart to pinpoint treatment areas

All SOAP Note types include a Draw feature, letting you add notations, highlights, etc., to both the face and body templates and uploaded photos.

In this article, we will go over:

• Add a SOAP Note to a Customer's Profile
• View Completed SOAP Notes
• Control Employee Access to SOAP Notes
