Comprehensive care plans reflect shared decisions made with patients, carers and families about the tests, interventions, treatments and other activities needed to achieve the goals of care.
As well as identifying clinical issues, risk screening and assessment processes can help identify the likelihood of harm, and support decision making about treatment and risk mitigation.
The purpose of identifying and agreeing to goals of care is to develop a shared understanding between patients, family, carers, other support people and the clinicians in the multidisciplinary team.
