10+ SOAP Note Templates
SOAP (subjective cues, objective cues, assessment, and planning) is a tool that most health care providers use when dealing with patients. It involves taking the patient’s verbal cues regarding his/her condition and getting their vital signs (temperature, heart rate, breathing rate, blood pressure), making an assessment based on their condition, and a plan of care. Based on this, the providers can then render the appropriate interventions to the patient, and after which, an evaluation will be made to determine whether or not there has been an improvement in the patient’s condition.
On our website, we provide you with note templates utilizing the SOAP format to be used by nurses, nursing students, doctors, dietitians, therapists, and any health care professional directly handling patients. The templates have been readily made, and a generous amount of space is provided for you to write the information you need gathered from the patients.

Here are some reminders and a more detailed explanation we offer on how to effectively write your SOAP notes:
- Subjective cues. Bot verbal and nonverbal information gathered from the patient. You may write the verbal information word for word.
- (i.e., “My head hurts” as verbalized by the patient as he is seen holding his forehead with his hand.)
- Objective cues. The temperature, heart rate, respiratory or breathing rate, and blood pressure.
- Assessment. Usually the nursing diagnosis based on the data gathered from the patient.
- (i.e., Pain related to head injury as evidenced by facial grimacing.)
- Planning. Plan of care for the patient which should be addressed to his/her present condition.
- (i.e., Alleviate headache through giving of prescribed pain relievers, provide distraction to patient by encouraging him to interact, etc.)
Through the use of SOAP, providers will have an idea on what the patient is feeling and can simple plan ahead on what to do for their patients’ condition. After which, providers can also then record the interventions performed on the patient and evaluate the effects of the said actions. Providers can then compare the expected outcome with the actual results.
