Here is an example of a SOAP note for a patient who has had a stroke:
Subjective:
The patient is a 70-year-old male who was recently hospitalized for a stroke. He presents to the clinic for a follow-up appointment. He reports that he has been feeling weak on his right side and has been having difficulty with walking and balance. He also reports some difficulty with speech and memory.
Objective:
On examination, the patient has weakness and decreased sensation on his right side, including his arm and leg. He has difficulty with walking and balance, and requires assistance. His speech is mildly impaired, with some difficulty finding words and forming sentences. A neurological examination reveals some cognitive deficits, including mild memory impairment.
Assessment:
The patient has had a stroke, with symptoms of hemiparesis, balance and gait deficits, and mild cognitive impairment.
Plan:
The patient will be referred for physical and occupational therapy to help improve his strength, coordination, and balance. Speech therapy will also be recommended to help improve his communication abilities. The patient will continue to take any medications prescribed during his hospitalization for stroke, which may include anticoagulants, antiplatelet agents, or other medications to prevent further stroke. The patient will be advised to manage any underlying conditions that may contribute to his stroke risk, such as hypertension or diabetes. Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor the patient’s progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed. The patient will also be advised to report any new symptoms or changes in his condition to his healthcare provider immediately.
