A Care Plan is a personalized document that outlines the specific needs and goals of an individual receiving care, often in a healthcare or social service setting. It includes information about the person's medical history, current health status, and any treatments or interventions required. Care Plans are typically created by healthcare professionals, such as nurses or social workers, in collaboration with the individual and their family. The purpose of a Care Plan is to ensure that all caregivers are aware of the individual's needs and preferences, promoting coordinated and effective care. It may also include strategies for monitoring progress and adjusting the plan as necessary. Regular reviews of the Care Plan help to adapt to any changes in the individual's condition or circumstances.
