Your Appointment Game Plan



Part 3 of 10 | Medical Visit Self-Advocacy

A practical, compassionate self-guided workbook from MindContinuum to help you decide what matters most before a medical visit. Use the FOCUS method to organize what you noticed, identify questions you want to ask, and consider possible next steps.

This resource includes a fictional example, guided reflection prompts, a reusable appointment-planning worksheet, and a personal next-step plan. It supports preparation and communication; it does not determine a clinician’s intent or diagnose a medical condition.
