Who decides when to reassess your Care Plan?
Any time if, in your opinion (or your substitute decision-make, if any) or the opinion of the Retirement Home Operator,
-
a goal in the Plan is met;
-
your care needs change or the care services set out in the Plan are no longer necessary; or
-
the care services set out in the Plan have not been effective.
- At a minimum, it's revised at least every six months.
