Care Planning Case Study

Decent Essays
The care planning meeting revolved around an 11 year old named, Katy, who was/is subject to care order. The rules around contact with Katy had been made very explicit to Katy’s mother and her Aunt, at the time of the care order being made.

    I have not had any experiences with the Comprehensive Plan of Care. My understanding is that the Comprehensive Plan of Care is an individualized plan that addresses the child’s needs in an explicit fashion and is based on standardized and culturally appropriate assessments.

I think the benefit of this type of case planning tool is that it can be critically reviewed and revised in assuring that the plan is relevant and meaningful and has the support for the child.
