Formatting Care Plans with HTML

Client Care Plans are found in Menu > Clients > Client Management > Client Managers > Care Plan.

Staff members may need to put a lot of information in the "Actions" section on the care plan which can cause the PDF generated Care Plan to compile the text into one single paragraph and create a large blank space on one page.

To eliminate this blank space and create a list format, HTML can be used. Please note that a Section Break in the example below is only needed when there is a long list of actions and they need to be separated to prevent large blank spaces on the bottom of one page.

Here is an example of the HTML format in a care plan for Meal Prep.

<ol>

<LI>Ensure that the client is given a well rounded meal. </LI> 

<LI>Ensure the client doesn't have access to unhealthy food. </LI>  

<LI>Ensure the client sticks to eating plan. </LI>

<LI>Use cook books for proper recipes. </LI>

<LI>Give client meals at the same time of the day. </LI>

<LI>Be aware of client food allergies </LI>

{SECTION_BREAK}

<LI>Keep kitchen area and dishes clean. </LI>

<LI>Check food expiration dates for client safety. </LI>

<LI>Cook food thoroughly. </LI>

<LI>Only allow dessert after dinner. </LI>

<LI>Assist client with cooking if they would like to take part in meal prep. </LI>

<LI>When shopping, pick fresh fruits and vegetables. </LI>

</ol>

As you can see in the image below, when we use HTML in our care plan and view the PDF, it will organize our text into a list format and we can see the section break is found between numbers 6 and 7 in the list.
