Question 1 of 5
A nurse is completing a SOAP note in a client's chart. In which of the following sections should the client's vital signs be documented?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In a SOAP note, vital signs should be documented in the Objective section. This section is for measurable and observable data, which includes vital signs like blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, and respiratory rate. This objective information provides concrete data about the client's current health status. Documenting vital signs in the Subjective section (
B) would be incorrect as this section is for the client's own descriptions and feelings, not objective data. The Plan section (
C) is for outlining the next steps or interventions, while the Assessment section (
D) is for the nurse's analysis and interpretation of the client's data, not the raw data itself.
