A care plan is a comprehensive document that outlines the goals, strategies and interventions to be used in providing care for an individual. It takes into account the person's physical, emotional, social and medical needs and is developed with input from healthcare professionals, family members and the patient themselves. The aim of a care plan is to ensure that all aspects of a person’s care are coordinated and delivered in a consistent manner, leading to improved outcomes for the individual. It may include details such as medication schedules, dietary requirements, physical therapy exercises or other interventions designed to improve the patient's overall health and well-being.
