Subjective notes


What did the patient say?

Provide as much detail as you can and describe the patients own words about themselves in terms of their function, disability, symptoms and history. Also include information from any family or caregivers and, if specific phrasing is used, enclose this in quotation marks. This will allow you or a future therapist to document the patients perception of their condition precisely and how it relates to their progress in rehabilitation, functional performance or quality of life.

Dont:

  • Pass judgement on a patient e.g. "Patient is over-reacting again".
  • Document irrelevant information e.g. patient complaining about previous therapist.
