Answer:

The main benefit of using SOAP notes is that SOAP describes changes to the patient's status or treatment.

Explanation:

In the SOAP a detailed registry of the state of health of the patient is made taking into account how he feels (subjective), what symptoms and signs he presents (objective), the analysis of the assessment and the therapeutic plan.

With this record, a detailed analysis of a patient's evolution with respect to an illness is made, as well as the treatment or therapy he receives. SOAP is the name given to this register, being the abbreviation of subjective, objective, assessment and plan.

With respect to the other options:

Employees know where to look for information. SOAP information is available only to medical staff, nurses and medical records professionals.
It is more time-consuming . The time invested in performing SOAP makes it possible to have a patient's information documented and available for consultation.
It is in chronological order. Soap is recorded chronologically, but it is not the main advantage or benefit.

What services are provided by dental labs

ikadub [295]

Hi there Lala!

My sister worked in a dental lab so it gave me a small insight of what happens!

In dental labs; they essentially work on the supplies (equipment) dentists use. They make teeth mounds, examine dental apparatus etc.

Dental technicians are essentially work in the background. Once the dentist has examined a patient and know what need to happen; they pass that information to the technicians so they can work on it and provide their service. They would be the people who make teeth mounds for observation and for braces.

Hope this helped :)
