Abstract
A care management system for improving the care of a client who is supported by a caregiver is described. The caregiver may participate in regular activities with the client and record these activities in the care management system. The care management system may present the caregiver with questions on a regular basis. Information may also be input into the system by a care management team made up of professionals responsible for the client's overall care. A risk analyzer may determine the client's risk for different risk conditions, and may calculate domain-specific and overall risk scores for the client. Furthermore, the risk analyzer may make recommendations for actions to be taken by the client, the caregiver, or the care management team in order to improve the client's care. The information in the care management system may be used by the care management team to direct aspects of the client's care.
