Comprehensive Annual Health Assessments (CHAP) for people with intellectual disability
An annual comprehensive health assessment improves the detection of health needs, enables active management of those needs, and significantly reduces health risks and poor health outcomes. So how can you support people living with an intellectual disability access one?
The CHAP tool is free and available to download from the Australia Government Department of Health and Aged Care at: Comprehensive Health Assessment Program (CHAP) – Annual Health Assessment for People with Intellectual Disability.
www.health.gov.au/CHAP-adult (adult CHAP, 18 years +),
