Health professional user guide

It includes some helpful advice and examples. View the guide.
Consumer brochure
Available in six community languages below, this brochure can be printed and given to your patient and the people who matter most to them to help them understand how the care plan is used to support their loved one.
The brochure is for the patient and the people who matter most to them when the care plan is in use, and not for display on public stands.
When we consulted with community leaders, they told us that it is best to provide the brochure in both English and the community language.
Please contact us at communications@safercare.vic.gov.au if you would like print-ready versions.
