What kind of tasks would typically be described in the Plan section of SOAP notes?

The Plan section of SOAP notes focuses specifically on the therapeutic interventions and activities that are intended for the client. This part outlines the specific strategies and activities that the practitioner will implement in order to help the client achieve their therapeutic goals. It is essential for guiding future sessions and ensuring that the interventions are aligned with the client’s needs and preferences.

When a therapeutic recreation specialist documents in the Plan section, they describe the specific recreational activities, interventions, or therapeutic exercises that will be used, considering the client’s goals and objectives. This approach not only clarifies the intended actions of the practitioner but also establishes a framework for evaluating the effectiveness of those interventions in subsequent sessions.

The other options, while relevant to the overall therapeutic process, do not fit the description of the Plan section. Client's leisure preferences are important for understanding the client but are typically documented in the Assessment section. Peer feedback on performance could be valuable in evaluating effectiveness but does not belong in the Plan. Similarly, assessment of client satisfaction may be reflected in post-intervention notes but is not part of the planning phase.
