Clarify what is missing
If you are unsure what to do, when to do it, or whom to contact, ask your care team to explain.
Make the plan workable
Tell your care team about anything that may make the plan difficult, including cost, transportation, language, or equipment.
Questions you can ask
- What matters most for me to do next?
- Can you explain that in another way?
- What if I cannot complete this step?
- Who can I contact with a question?
Let your care team know if cost, transportation, language, supplies, or unclear instructions make a step difficult.
