Fitness Assessment Form

Fitness Assessment Forms can be accessed by both the physical health practitioner, specialist, or professional, as well as the client. This is in addition to the administrative staff who may view the document to edit, update, and store it within a secure system. Only authorized users have access, usually kept to a small number to safeguard patient information. The forms do contain sensitive details that should not be accessible by just anyone.

Five fitness assessments are usually incorporated into fitness assessment forms but tend to be elaborated further within fitness progress notes. These areas usually include muscular strength, cardiovascular endurance, flexibility, and body composition. Each practitioner will adapt this to suit their needs; however, these are usually the standard fitness dimensions assessed.

It should be created before the client meets with you. This allows you to prepare efficiently and ensures you spend as much time with the client as possible. Assessment forms created within appointments can take up time and detract from the interactions at hand.
