Preparing for a Medical Visit: What Families Need to Know

A good appointment starts before you arrive. Knowing what to expect, sharing how your loved one communicates, and understanding what helps them stay comfortable can reduce their anxiety and improve the care they receive.

The following tools and resources can help you and your loved one prepare for a medical appointment:

• Healthy Living Tools- These Charting the LifeCourse tools help you prepare for an appointment, stay organized, talk with your health care provider, and share your vision for healthy living. These tools can be shared with family, medical team, or anybody who supports your family.

• Mental Health Crisis Card- This communication tool, created by The Arc, can provide information about a person’s disability and mental health conditions, along with steps to help in stressful situations.

• 5 Things: Appointment Anxiety- Going to the doctor, dentist, or another appointment can make some people feel nervous or anxious. Watch the video above as DODD Medical Director, Dr. Laura Sorg, shares tips for navigating appointment anxiety.
