My appointment and main question
What is the test or appointment called? When and where is it? What do I most want to understand?
What staff need to explain
Why is the test proposed? What might it show? What are the choices, benefits and risks?
How I communicate
How should staff explain things? How will I ask questions, show pain or ask them to pause?
What helps me feel comfortable
Record useful timing, space, positioning, familiarisation, sensory support or breaks to discuss with the team.
Who I want involved
Who would I like with me? What information may be shared with them? Do I want private time with staff?
Preparation to check with the clinical team
Ask about food, drinks, medicines, equipment and transport. Record the team’s contact and where its official instructions are kept.

Who will explain what happens afterwards? What help might I need at home? Where are the team’s warning signs and contact instructions?
Results and next steps
