Working well with your therapy team

You are the most important member of your rehab team. A little preparation helps you get the most from every appointment.

Before appointments

• Write down your main questions and goals.
• Note changes since last time.
• Bring a list of your medicines.

During appointments

• Ask them to explain anything unclear.
• Take notes or bring someone to help.
• Be honest about what is and isn’t working.

Between appointments

• Follow the home programme consistently.
• Track questions as they come up.
• Note any new symptoms to report.

Build the partnership

• Share your priorities - they shape the plan.
• Ask what to expect and when.
• Speak up if goals need to change.
