Care Plans                                

Care planning plays an important role in contributing to wellness and setting goals for recovery.  Helen Glover* has produced the following paper for Auseinet as a starting point for discussion about care planning. It contains principles, processes and examples for: managed care, person centred care and self-directed/self managed care. Within a recovery oriented service framework a move from managed care to self-directed care is desired.

Please note: the font on this paper is small: readers needing larger print will need to click on the 'zoom' tool on the task bar at the top of the document.

*Helen Glover currently works as an independent consultant and educator in the areas of mental health and disability. Her profession of social work, and her lived experience of recovery from mental illness, informs her work.
