Documentation and Care Planning
Every shift, visit, and conversation with the people you support leaves a trail of decisions and observations that lives in the records you contribute to, and good documentation is what keeps people safe, gives them a voice in their own care, and protects you and your organisation when something goes wrong.
This module explains what good documentation looks like, your role in person-centred care planning, how to write clear and accurate records, and how to protect the information you handle every day.
