This is a writing tool for clinicians. It helps you word the Risk section of a case note whose content you have already decided. It does not assess anyone, does not calculate or suggest a risk level, and does not tell you what to do. It is not a self-assessment and it is not a crisis service: it does not receive, read or respond to anything you type.

It replaces no form. If your service mandates a risk assessment form or proforma, this composes wording for your clinical note and does not stand in for that form, or for any screening tool your service requires.

Risk section

First, which kind of contact was this?

Nothing is written until you choose, and nothing is chosen for you. If risk was not formally assessed, you pick the reason yourself: the tool never fills one in.
