Collection and usage attributes
Guide for use:	The phase of mental health care is the primary goal of care that is reflected in the patient's mental health treatment plan. It reflects a prospective assessment of the primary goal of care at the time of collection, rather than a retrospective assessment. A new phase of mental health care begins either when a patient commences an episode of mental health care or when the primary goal of care changes in an existing mental health care episode.
