🩺 Why this matters
The Action Plan dashboard is the foundation of how Careteam supports person-centred, integrated care. It turns proven care pathways—or new ones—into actionable, adaptable templates, enabling both consistency and customization across teams and client needs.

Each Action Plan dashboard:

  • Reflects the workflow and focus of a care pathway (e.g., Hospital to Home, Palliative, Recovery)

  • Combines standardized building blocks with configurable design

  • Can be tailored by the health team to support individual client journeys


🔍 Where to find it

  • Go to the People tab

  • Select a person’s name to open their Action Plan dashboard

  • You'll see a personalized layout of blocks, reflecting the program or pathway they’re part of


🚀 What makes up the dashboard

👤 Person Panel (always at the top/left)
Includes:

  • Team members

  • Goals

  • Personal information (e.g., health card #, DOB)

  • Details about the Action Plan

This panel provides the full care context for the person at a glance.

📦 Blocks: The building units of every Action Plan
Each Action Plan is built using blocks you can customize based on team needs. These blocks can appear:

  • In the main panel (larger view)

  • Or in the side panel (compact view)

Common blocks include:

  • Things to Do block– Central task/activity coordination

  • 📄 Resources block– Documents, videos and educational content

  • 📝 Check-ins block– Bringing the results of check-in to the main dashboard

  • 📋 Checklist block– Key tracking

  • 💬 General Information block– Shared updates for everyone involved

  • 🔒 Status Updates block– Health team-only updates

  • 📅 Important Dates block– Key moments in care (admission/discharge)

  • 🔗 Services and Referrals block – Direct access to referral workflows

  • 🏁 Discharge block - Supporting current status, discharge goals and current plan

Each dashboard is purpose-built to match a care program’s needs—for example:

  • Palliative care dashboards may highlight Check-ins and Status Updates

  • Hospital to Home may include Discharge Blocks, General Info, and Resources

  • Recovery Support may surface Referrals, Goals, and Client-led tasks

👤 Top Bar: Universal navigation

  • Secure messaging

  • Notifications

  • Your profile settings


💡 Tips and things to know

  • Action Plan templates are created by your organization or program lead

  • Each plan can still be customized further for the individual client

  • All changes and updates happen in real time, so teams always have the latest info

  • As new Careteam blocks are added, you can enhance dashboards without disruption
