progress notes
Clinical visit summaries
Progress notes are written records documenting a patient's condition, treatment, and response over time, typically maintained by healthcare providers in medical settings.
Each entry captures what happened during a visit or shift—symptoms observed, interventions performed, changes in status.
The format varies: some use structured templates like SOAP notes (subjective, objective, assessment, plan), others are narrative.
