Principles/Guidelines for Documentation
Accuracy
NEVER falsify, exaggerate, or make up data
Info pertinent to pt’s care should always be included
![Page 7: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Principles/Guidelines for Documentation
Brevity Short, concise sentences Info relevant to Rx effectiveness Info changes & improvement in pt.’s
functional abilities Avoid abbreviations b/c they don’t
always have the same meaning resulting in misunderstanding of info
![Page 8: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Principles/Guidelines for Documentation
Clarity Be clear Paint a picture of pt.’s functional ability Ex: “In sitting position, client grasps
pant leg to lift and place on L lower leg on R knee to reach L shoe.”
Correct punctuation, grammar, & spelling

Ch 5
Writing the ContentSubjective Data
Definition: information the patient, significant other or caregiver tells the PT or PTA that is relevant to the patient’s condition, and treatment, AND
Relates to treatment effectiveness and accomplishment of goals.
Relevant: should pertain to problem, goals, treatment effectiveness
![Page 14: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Ch 5
Subjective Data Recorded in S section of SOAP note
Important information in initial evaluation (describes functional needs, problems)
Necessary in progress note only if it provides evidence of treatment effectiveness or Progress toward functional goals.
More important to health care provider than lawyer or third party payer
![Page 15: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Ch 5
Subjective DataListening for Relevant Info
Analytic – listening for specific kinds of info (pain, lifestyle, fears) Directed – listening to a patient’s answers to
specific questions Attentive – listening for general info to get
total picture of patient Exploratory – listening due to interest in
subject Appreciative – for pleasure Courteous - it is polite Passive - overhear
![Page 16: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Ch 5
Subjective DataPTA’s role during treatment PTA should read initial evaluation Be aware of treatment plan and
goals Be aware of functional activities
identified in the evaluation. LISTEN for any information not
reported earlier that is relevant to the patient discharge plans, goals, treatment effectiveness.
![Page 17: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Objective DataRecord of Treatment Sessions
# Treatments provided # Missed treatments Why treatment missed Did patient phone & cancel
![Page 31: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Objective DataCommon Mistakes PTA reports what they did instead of patient’s
response or performance
Objective is about what patient does and how they respond to Rx
Failure to show “skilled” need
What is a “skilled” need? Could someone not trained in PT do what I have just
described?
![Page 32: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Skilled need? Pt amb’d 50 feet with walker & min
asst
During gait training, Pt amb’d 50 feet with walker with verbal instruction for correct gait sequence and min asst for occasional loss of balance. Pt performed gait sequence correctly 50% of time
![Page 33: Documentation Chapters 4, 5, 6. Writing the Content Guidelines Progress Notes Report of pt.’s PT treatment sessions Proof Rx plan in I.E. is being cared.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649daa5503460f94a98f6a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Skilled Need Carefully select words
Gait training not walking pt Pt education in body mechanics Give patients response to educational
training; the patient should ALWAYs demonstrate the activity after instruction/training – then document patient’s ability to perform
Do they need further instruction? Prove it through your documentation!
