Improving the efficiency and person-centredness of occupational therapy input into care-plans in a forensic mental health and rehabilitation service.

Care-planning is vital to the delivery of timely, person-centred, safe and effective care. Despite the understanding of the benefits of person-centred care-plan in both services, occupational therapists (OTs) within our forensic and rehabilitation services had difficulties in inputting into patient care-plan an efficient and person-centred manner.The OT team developed a Quality Improvement (QI) project to improve the efficiency of the OT process to create more time for care-planning and improve person-centredness of OT input into care-plans to 82% in the forensic services and rehabilitation services by December 2023.
