Action planning

The perfect week tool is about planning to make sure things really happen for a person. When we get this wrong it ends up with a person not getting to do the things they want or living a life that makes sense to them.

To make sure that the perfect week actually happens, you will need to create a more detailed action plan that is linked to the person’s support requirements.  Then use this information everyday as a reminder of what you need to work towards.

You can use the perfect week tool to evaluate the service that is provided and ask how are we doing? You can also use other person-centered tools such as what’s working/not working, learning log and 4 plus 1 questions to capture any lessons learned and improve future plans. Remember to review a person’s perfect week with them on a regular basis and make adjustments as the person’s interests or situation changes.
