Sample Progress Notes for ADHD

Strong ADHD progress notes focus on the longitudinal tracking of core symptoms—inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity—alongside functional impairments in work or school. Key sections should include a review of medication adherence, specific side effects like insomnia or appetite loss, and a documented assessment of the current dosage's efficacy. Documentation should clearly state the patient's subjective improvement and the clinician's objective observations of the patient's presentation during the visit.

Aduvera replaces the need to manually map these samples by recording the actual encounter and drafting the note in real-time. Instead of recalling specific symptom reports from memory, clinicians can review a draft backed by the encounter transcript. This ensures that nuanced patient feedback regarding executive dysfunction is captured accurately and placed in the correct section of the SOAP or H&P note before it is finalized for the EHR.
