Practitioner Review
The practitioner remains responsible for selecting content appropriate to the child and reviewing whether each item is concrete enough for practice.
Important Boundary
The tool is not a general crisis plan, risk assessment, legal safety protocol, or predictor of future harm.
Does every situation need an action?
Yes. A complete item links a specific situation to at least one concrete safety action or help-seeking step.
Is assertive communication required for every item?
No. Assertive communication can be included where relevant and omitted without making the plan incomplete.
Does the tool generate safety instructions?
No. The practitioner and child enter the plan content; the system organizes it descriptively.
Are there configurable settings?
No. The tool has no substantive settings, but the fixed tool itself is still saved to the practitioner's account.
