A physical therapy SOAP note template, a pelvic health daily note and eight shorter snippets for the sentences that fill a daily note, all of which you can insert wherever you document. Type a shortcut, fill in the popup, and the note appears with today's details. The format repeats, the details are that visit's, and you stay the author.

What's inside the physical therapy SOAP note template pack

Templates:

• /ptsoap: a physical therapy daily note template in SOAP order. Pick the pain rating from a drop-down menu, tick the interventions you gave and type their minutes. Total timed minutes and units under the 8-minute rule are added up for you
• /pfdn: a pelvic health daily note with bladder, bowel and pelvic pain sections you switch on as needed, a consent and chaperone line, and a list of interventions to pick from

Shorter snippets, each one a SOAP note physical therapy sentence you can edit once and keep:

• /tol tolerated treatment well, /dsub the subjective opener with a pain rating
• /aprog progressing toward goals with the measured change, /ncpt needs continued skilled care
• /skprog skilled progression for next visit, /pfnv plan for next visit
• /cues verbal and tactile cues, /exnp exercise not performed, so the flowsheet and note agree

Read together, they make a physical therapy SOAP note example you can reuse, and a set of skilled physical therapy documentation examples worded the way PTs write them.

How it works

• Type a shortcut in WebPT, Prompt, Net Health or any browser EMR, or in installed programs through the desktop app
• Fill in the text boxes and pick from the menus as it inserts. Guidance notes show while you fill in the form, never in the note
• Check calculated units against your payer's rules before you bill

Free to install. Use /ptsoap on your next daily note. Then save one sentence you type often as your own snippet: /tol is a good first one, and it turns a full sentence into four characters.
