title: 'It will help identify opportunities to develop service provision'.
abstract: The new framework provides two opportunities to identify client need: a short 'screening tool' referred to as a checklist; and the longer Decision Support Tool which summarises the current client position, drawing in the opinions of the team that engaged with the client, and input from their relative or carer(s). Where clients have a rapidly deteriorating condition, a fast track tool is available as a prompt summary of need.
