Tools for building an Individualized Care Plan with the elderly
The complexity that characterizes the needs of elderly people, which requires a multidisciplinary and personalized response, underlines the importance of adopting an Individualized Care Plan and the need to define and implement it adequately.
The ICP through the Relational Social Work Method
