The SOAPnote Project

A SOAP note is the basic unit of medical documentation.  “SOAP” stands for Subjective Objective Assessment Plan.  The four elements provide structure during a clinical visit and a narrative record after the encounter.

The SOAPnote Project is an effort to improve collaboration on note templates, checklists, and clinical calculators.

Everything gets better if you use the site to make clinical tools and spread the word to your colleagues.  Currently, we’re at 2806 users!
