Support Instructions 
General information about this tab
The data displayed in the two tables on this tab is information about the person that is copied over from the Assessment.
Only information documented in the Assessment is displayed on this tab. For example, there are many options that can be checked in the Assessment related to preferences and support instructions. Only the options that are actually checked are brought over to the Support Plan.
Some information may display as blank lines in the Support Plan that was not entered in the Assessment.
