1. Describe the support
Describe the support, area and preferred timing. Do not send medical reports, identification numbers or a full address in the general form. Choose “Not sure” if you do not know the service.
2. Review suitability
Discuss scope, who will provide the service, and whether specialist assessment or a clinician’s plan is needed. Availability can vary by location, timing and type of care.
3. Agree before starting
Request clear confirmation of timing, tasks, cost, supplies and change or cancellation arrangements. Completing a form is not a booking; treatment equipment needs professional direction.
4. Clarify follow-up
Know whom to contact about arrangements or new needs. Clinical changes should be reviewed with the treating professional. In an emergency, contact local emergency services rather than waiting for an enquiry response.
