  7. Key points Trainer to source an example of a support plan that is person-centred, uses a strengths-based approach and that includes a section for monitoring and reviewing to share with student as a hand out. An individual support plan contains information that will help you to implement activities to support the needs of the client. The plan may also contain tasks that are outside the duties of the support worker, such as oral suctioning, catheter care or gastrostomy feeds. In these situations support workers must not undertake these tasks, but instead call for the support or assistance of trained staff, such as nurses.
