Progress Notes: The Narrative

Rehabilitation progress notes do not include lengthy descriptions of the conversation that might occur during the session.  The focus is on the rehabilitation interventions and the recipient’s ability to gain functioning through those interventions.

There is very little psychiatric or psychological language embedded in rehabilitation progress notes.  In the previous example, the word anxiety is the only word that is remotely psychiatric.  Rehabilitation focuses on the functioning and so do the notes.
