Plan of Care

An initial plan of care is completed within 24 hours of admission. A case formulation, encompassing historical information and information gathered during the interview is then developed that includes the following components:

• Pertinent history
• Predisposing factors
• Precipitating events
• Previous treatment
• Presenting problems

A Comprehensive Plan of Care (CIPOC) is completed by the 14th day of admission. This CIPOC drives all interventions in all settings while the client is at Grafton.

A holistic approach to treatment is emphasized with the following components driving all plans:

• Strengths
• Needs
• Abilities
• Preferences

The multidisciplinary team reviews each client’s plan on a monthly basis to ensure that the client is making progress and is on track with his/her goals. Interventions and goals may be adjusted if the client is not on track with meeting goals and objectives.
