Practice tips: Care planning
The information collected at intake and through the comprehensive assessment contributes to the shaping of the plan of action and steps to be taken during the person’s contact with the service. A trauma-informed care plan is a collaboration between clinician and client. It ensures that the support and interventions being provided match the person’s current circumstance and is responsive to their priority needs.
The care plan, which belongs to the client, is a roadmap of their treatment with identified goals and clearly defined expectations. It ensures that contact is intentional, productive and creates a sense of movement and achievement for the client.
The service setting or system you are working in may dictate the parameters or the steps of the care planning process, but the quality of the experience is an aspect we can shape.
