NOTE 1 The mandated period of care is focused upon the framework of a care commitment of the provider as well as the mandate from the subject of care, which means that the roles and responsibilities of both the interacting parts are respected.

NOTE 3 A mandated period of care may be part of another mandated period of care. NOTE 4 In EN 13940-1:2007 period of care was the preferred term for this concept.
