Before the conversation

Identify the report by its title, date if shown and ordering clinic. Keep the full original available. Choose three questions that matter to you.

  1. What would I like the clinician to explain?
  2. What is still unclear to me?
  3. What do I need to know about the next step?

What to write down

The explanation I was given
Use your own notes alongside any written clinical instructions.
The agreed next step and who arranges it
Include any action you need to book or confirm.
Timing and review
Copy the timeframe and review date you are given, rather than guess.
Contact and unresolved questions
Note whom to ask if a question remains or an expected appointment does not arrive.

Say the plan back in your own words and ask whether you understood it. Request written instructions when useful. Keep completed copies private.
