Event Details

Case notes are an integral and important part of practice. Research shows that record- keeping practices have an impact on client outcomes because poor case notes can result in poor decision-making and adverse client outcomes (Preston-Shoot 2003, Cumming et al. 2007).


Designed for those who have an obligation to keep case notes and records for social housing clients, this workshop will provide participants with information about their legal and professional obligations regarding case notes and records, including how to write them in a professional and efficient way.
