Free template

NDIS progress notes, written while it’s fresh.

Good progress notes connect what happened on the shift to the participant's goals — and they're far easier to write in the moment than from memory on a Sunday. This template gives you the structure so you just fill in the day.

The structure of a good note

  • Date, support type, and shift time — so the note matches the invoice
  • Activity: what you actually did together, in plain words
  • Goal progress: tie it to a goal from the participant's plan
  • Anything notable — incidents, changes, wins worth flagging
  • Follow-up: what to pick up next shift

A starting structure, not a compliance guarantee — you stay responsible for the records you keep and any reporting your participants or their plan require.

Twenty seconds, not Sunday afternoon

1
Open it on the shift
The note template is right there when you finish a shift — goals already pulled from the participant's plan.
2
Talk or type
Voice-to-text a couple of sentences while it's fresh. Tag which goal it relates to.
3
Saved against the shift
The note attaches to the shift and the goal automatically — nothing to file, nothing to lose.

Why notes-in-the-moment matter

Notes written days later are vaguer, take longer, and miss the detail that shows real goal progress. Worse, they pile up — and a backlog of notes is the thing that turns a quiet Sunday into admin.

Grab the template free to see the structure. If you want it to open automatically on every shift, pull goals from the plan, and feed straight into your invoicing, that’s the rest of Solodesk.

Leave the shift with the note already done.
