when writing progress notes concentrate on what you actually want other stakeholders to know. Refer only to resident, client etc no name.you are already in the casenotes of the resident.Remember to write short note on what the client did, taking into account description of action. As a lifestyle therapist you must only report what occurred not what you think happened.Read other professional progress noting this is good idea to get used to terminology used. Example. Resident attending knitting today socially interacting with other clients.Enjoyed teaching others her knitting skills and commented how she looks forward to coming next time. Hope his helps, progress noting is not easy and you have to think what you are writing as this is a legal document if you not sure seek assistance.
