Clinical notes

A clinical record that holds up in eight years, not just this afternoon

Movari's notes are built around SOAP because that is how physios actually reason. Draft through the day, lock when you are done, and amend without ever overwriting — so the record can demonstrate its own integrity.

SOAP-native, not SOAP-adapted

  • Subjective, Objective, Assessment and Plan are the structure of the note, not headings you type into a blank box.
  • The Assessment field is the one that matters and the one everyone skips under time pressure — so it is a field, not an afterthought.
  • Annotated body diagrams sit alongside the text, because some findings are faster to draw than to describe.
  • Outcome measures are recorded against the episode, so progress is a number you can show a patient rather than a memory.

Draft while you think. Lock when you are done.

  • Notes stay editable as drafts through the day, so you can write in the room and finish between patients.
  • Locking fixes the record. After that it cannot be silently edited — by you, by us, by anyone.
  • The HCPC asks you to complete records promptly. Fast drafting is what makes that realistic rather than aspirational.

Corrections that leave a trail

  • Realised you wrote the wrong side, or a scan came back and changed the picture? Add an amendment.
  • Amendments are append-only and dated. The original text stays visible, with what changed, who changed it and when.
  • This is the paper rule — a single line through the error, initialled and dated — enforced by the software instead of by discipline.
  • A record with no history cannot demonstrate it was not altered afterwards, and that is precisely the moment somebody will allege it was.

An audit log you did not have to remember to keep

  • Clinically significant actions are written to an append-only audit log automatically.
  • It records who did what and when, including who accessed a record.
  • Append-only is enforced at the database, not just in the interface — the application physically cannot rewrite history.

One record, not five places

  • Notes, documents, outcome measures, exercise plans, appointment history and correspondence all live on the same patient record.
  • Notes are not always tied to an appointment — a phone call, an email or a home visit can be a standalone note.
  • Export the complete record for any patient at any time, as markdown plus every original document. That is what answers a Subject Access Request inside the month you get.
