The Importance of Nursing Service, Support, and Care Plans
The individual is in the driver's seat.
Every individual has abilities and needs that require special attention. Caregivers cannot meet a person's needs unless they identify those needs. Not all caregivers will be familiar with an individual. Therefore, a plan needs to be in place that documents the reasons and indications for a care plan.
When thought goes into the care-planning process and individual voices are heard, better individual outcomes are possible.
Individualized care ensures that each individual gets what they need when they need it. When the entire care team is part of the process, it brings value to the individual and enriches all disciplines.
