Abstract
Objective: To develop a simple and easy-to-complete tool to communicate identified clinical risks. Conclusions: Literature and Internet searching did not yield a simple and easy-to-use method of identifying and communicating risks. A Risk Identification Form was developed and may be of interest to mental health services wishing to implement a similar tool to document and communicate clinical risk identified during assessment of mental health consumers.
