Care ContinuityFree practical toolkit

Simple start

Care Continuity is a free toolkit.

It helps you find information, prepare questions and keep track of the next step.

It is for people with disability, people who need mental health support, and people working with them.

You can use it yourself. You can ask someone you trust to help.

What do you need today?

Not sure which disability service to ask? Call Disability Gateway on 1800 643 787. You can ask someone you trust to help you make the call.

Make one next step clear

The worksheet asks:

  1. What matters to you?
  2. What still needs to happen?
  3. Who has agreed to do it?
  4. When will you check what happened?
  5. Who will you contact if it is still unresolved?

Open the worksheet to write or print.

Start with one action. You can leave other boxes blank. Give or read your note to the person or service you choose. Nothing is sent automatically.

Open a blank print sheet to write on paper.

You do not have to put private details on this website. The worksheet does not send your words to Care Continuity. You choose whether to download or print a copy.

Information you can read now

The source guide covers some hospital, police and legal-help situations in Australia. Police guidance is limited to WA and Victoria. Check the location and date on each source.

Read the source cards without AI. You can also read the short draft lessons.

No account, payment or AI is needed.

Getting human help

The toolkit links to disability services, independent advocates and complaint routes. Contact the service you choose directly. Each service decides what help it can provide.

Care Continuity does not take cases or arrange care. It cannot respond to an emergency. Use your local emergency service when there is immediate danger.

The made-up example

The Alex example shows how an unfinished action can stay visible when workers change. Only that demonstration uses made-up people and events. Its buttons do not arrange real care.

Your voice matters

Someone helping you should listen to your wishes. Their views should not replace yours.

Do not put private records or personal stories in a public comment.
