The following points are important to consider in collaboratively developing a care plan:

The jointly developed care plan should be based on the individual formulation and cover personality disorder and any co-occurring disorders.

The patient should be supported to develop a crisis self-management plan as early as possible in the treatment episode.

  •  A crisis care plan identifying how a team aims to respond to a crisis should be made explicit
  • The phase of treatment should be clearly identified.
  • Risk management plans should be explicit. 
  • Care Programme Approach may by useful in helping to manage complexity or severity. See here for more information .
  • Quality assurance including appropriate supervision.
  • Social network involvement where appropriate
