Goals For Therapy Worksheets

Although the goals for therapy worksheet can essentially be used any time during a client’s treatment, we would recommend asking your patient to complete it as early as possible. This will help ensure that the treatment plan you develop is as effective as possible from an early date, enabling your client to immediately begin working toward their goals.

This specific worksheet has been designed to be completed by the client, but if have clients who may struggle with doing this independently, feel free to assist them. The most important thing is that the answers to the prompts genuinely reflect the client’s wishes, but as long as this is the case, then you can definitely help them complete it.

These worksheets will contain confidential information regarding a client and their medical condition when completed, so need to be stored according to HIPAA guidelines. You can either choose to store them in a physical location or using an electronic EHR system. Both of these options are perfectly fine, provided there are secure safeguards in place to protect patient privacy. Because you will most likely refer back to the worksheets, it is also a good idea to store them somewhere they can be easily accessed.
