A lifecare plan is a comprehensive document that outlines the medical, rehabilitation, and support services needed by an individual who has been injured, typically as a result of an accident or illness. The plan is created by a Certified Life Care Planner that works along with a team of healthcare professionals, including physicians, therapists, and case managers, and takes into account the individual's medical history, current condition, and future needs.

A lifecare plan can help an injured person in several ways:

Provides a roadmap for recovery: A lifecare plan outlines the medical and rehabilitation services required to help the injured person recover from their injury. This can include physical therapy, occupational therapy, and other types of rehabilitation.

Helps manage ongoing medical needs: An injured person may require ongoing medical care for the rest of their life. A lifecare plan can help identify the types of medical and non-medical services required and the associated costs, so that the injured person can quantify, plan, and budget accordingly.

Ensures appropriate care and support: A lifecare plan takes into account the individual's unique needs and circumstances, and ensures that appropriate care and support services are provided. This can include home healthcare services, adaptive equipment, essential services like lawn care or cleaning services and modifications to the home or workplace to accommodate the individual's needs.

Helps with legal proceedings: If the injury was the result of an automobile crash or injury while working on job, a lifecare plan can be used as evidence to support the injured person's claim. The plan provides a detailed breakdown of the individual's medical needs and associated costs, which can help determine an appropriate settlement with that at fault party.

Overall, a lifecare plan can provide peace of mind for the injured person and their family, by ensuring that all necessary medical and support services are identified and accounted for, and that the individual's ongoing needs are met.
