RP Check
§00 — About

A reference page for every medication, with every claim cited.

RP Check is a free, source-driven reference tool for Behaviour Support Practitioners reviewing whether a medication — or a combination of medications — constitutes regulated chemical restraint under the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission framework. Each page is layered with jurisdictional and provider-context overlays, and every claim links back to the authoritative source it was drawn from.

Who it's for

  • Behaviour Support Practitioners writing or reviewing Behaviour Support Plans where psychotropic medication is a feature.
  • NDIS implementing providers — registered or unregistered — who need to confirm whether a prescribed medication crosses the regulated-restrictive-practice threshold for their participants.
  • Family members and guardians looking for a plain-language summary of what a participant has been prescribed and how it sits within the NDIS framework.
  • Prescribers who want to understand the chemical-restraint context a BSP review will apply to their prescription.

Why

The information needed to make a chemical-restraint judgement is scattered across a long list of authoritative sources: the Therapeutic Goods Administration's Product Information and Poisons Standard, the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme, the WHO ATC index, the NDIS Rules and Commission practice guidance, the ACSQHC clinical-quality standard, the relevant state Senior Practitioner authority, and — in most states — a parent disability statute.

RP Check pulls these together on a single page per substance, with every claim citing the source it was drawn from. The architectural rule is simple: no claim without a citation. RP Check does not synthesise content from training knowledge; it extracts from authoritative documents, paraphrases only where clearly marked as such, and links straight back to the primary source on every claim.

What it isn't

  • Not clinical advice.RP Check is informational. It does not replace a prescriber's clinical judgement, an authorised Behaviour Support Plan, or the practitioner-of-record's scope of practice.
  • Not a regulatory determination.Whether a particular use of a medication constitutes a regulated restrictive practice in a specific case turns on the prescriber's documented purpose and on context the page cannot see. RP Check is best used as a starting point for that judgement, not a substitute for it.
  • Not a complete drug-information service. For prescribing decisions, refer to the cited TGA Product Information directly — it is linked on every page.

Free, no accounts, no identifiers

Every page on RP Check is publicly readable without an account. We do not store participant identifiers, prescriber details, or anything you would enter into a form — because there are no forms beyond the substance search box. There are no tracking pixels, no advertising, and no analytics that identify you. The site is, and is intended to remain, a free reference tool.

RP Check is a project of PracticeWise — a small Australian practice toolkit suite for Behaviour Support Practitioners and disability-sector providers. The same teal mark appears in the corner of every page.
