Comprehensive information: The subjective section captures the patient’s reported symptoms and history, while the objective section details physical exam findings, lab results, and vital signs.

The assessment section allows the nurse practitioner to synthesize the subjective and objective data to reach a diagnosis and differential diagnoses.

The plan section outlines the proposed interventions, medications, patient education, and follow-up appointments.
