YOUR ONGOING CARE ADVOCACY PLAN

Medical Visit Self-Advocacy Workbook • Part 10 of 10

Each healthcare experience can teach you something about what helps you feel informed, included, and prepared. Keeping those lessons in one place can make future appointments easier to approach.

Your Ongoing Care Advocacy Plan is a practical, self-guided workbook that helps you record your priorities, communication preferences, support needs, and strategies that have worked for you. It can be used across healthcare visits, between therapy or coaching sessions, or as part of your own personal growth.
