Abstract:
1. Mental Health providers are under increasing pressure to provide objective, individualized care that produces outcomes that may be measured against accepted clinical standards. 2. Clinicians may now track patient responses throughout a continuum of treatment in varying locations by using a customized critical path/treatment plan format. 3. Care delivery is documented by superimposing actual occurrences over desired ones on a critical pathway.
