Fink Cards

A one-page profile captures important information about a person on a single sheet of paper. These cards help you with the first section of a one-page profile – what people appreciate about the person.

One-page profiles are a summary of a person on one page. These conversation cards are designed to help you to develop one-page profiles – for yourself and with other people. They can help you develop one-page profiles with patients, or people you support within health, social care, education or social justice.

Use these questions to learn about what matters to the person, what people appreciate about them, and how to support the person. Or you can simply use them to develop your own one-page profile.
