It includes options to use multimedia files which are particularly useful when a person has difficulties expressing themselves, or for showing how to do things or actions and reactions.
It is recommended that About Me information is reviewed and updated at key transition points for example for children and young people with Education, Health and Care (EHC) plans when transitioning from primary to secondary school, moving onto college and whenever their home circumstances change (for example moving into supported living or residential care). The transition process from children\u2019s social care to adult\u2019s social care is also a recommended time for reviewing and updating About Me information. For adults, it should be reviewed and updated at planned reviews or when circumstances change. It should be possible for the individual to update their information whenever they want or need to.
It is recommended the individual (or the person supporting them to write the information) is prompted to consider:
that the most important information comes first in any section.
avoiding adding too much information as important information may be buried within text making it difficult for the professionals to easily digest the information and use it to personalise care.
when the use of multimedia is effective and ensure that videos are kept short.
that they do not need to put information about themselves in every section, only where they feel they have information they want to share.
the sections enable the individual to record whatever is most important to them and therefore are broad and few in number. Local implementers could decide to structure the information within the sub-categories further.
About Me elements are free text to allow the person to elaborate on their preferences (e.g. what matters to them). To help individuals to structure their information within the sections a set of possible prompt questions have been included with this guidance, but please note that these are intended as a guide and should not constrain a person's responses to the sections in About Me. If implementers are working with a particular cohort, they may wish to consult guidance from relevant bodies or charities and tailor the prompt questions accordingly.

1. What does someone caring for, or supporting you, need to know about you in an emergency?
Consider including any important preferences, needs and wishes that indicate how you need to be cared for and supported in an emergency such as the need to avoid any disturbing stimuli e.g., noise, visual, smell, taste or touch etc. For example by being seen in a quiet or darkened room, the need for visual aids, the need for a translator or the need for vegan appropriate\u00a0medications etc. Consider including any food allergies or risk of choking. Consider referencing other documents in which you have already recorded any needs, wishes and preferences such as an advance decision, a lasting power of attorney, a communication or hospital passport or an end-of-life plan.
2. What\u2019s most important to you?
This is just as important as emergency information. Think about your core values, spiritual beliefs, culture, ethnicity and religion as they relate to your care. Think about what makes you happy, for example meaningful activities you enjoy, pets, objects, computer games, exercise or sport, places you like to visit, education or spending time with family and friends. There may be a specific stimulating sensory item or activity you enjoy.
3. What are your aspirations and goals for the future?
A description of what is most important to you.
Key Information: Include any essential information that any professional in health and social care should know about you in any situation, including emergencies.
Other Information: This could include: values, spirituality/religion, ethnicity, culture, pets, goals and aspirations, meaningful activities including leisure activities, visiting places, sport and exercise, listening to music, employment, education, volunteering.
