During Your Health Care Visit


Talk to the doctor about your health concerns and questions.

If there is something you do not understand, ask the doctor or nurse to explain it again.

Ask that you be spoken to directly.

Take notes or have a supporter take notes for you. You can also ask the doctor if you can record their answers on your phone.

You know yourself best.

Tell the doctor, nurse, and others how to best support you.
