Describe the activities that matter
Before the assessment, consider movements or activities you want to discuss: walking, working, carrying something or returning to a hobby. Describe difficulties without trying to diagnose them.
Explain when they occur and what you would like to return to. These examples give the physiotherapist a starting point for discussion.
Ask what to bring and wear
Contact the practice about useful documents and suitable clothing for the planned assessment. Mention access or travel constraints that affect your visit.
Gather available reports requested by the professional. They will tell you what is relevant to your situation.
Understand the assessment discussion
During the appointment, ask the purpose of observations or movements. Describe what you feel and any difficulty understanding an instruction.
At the end, ask how the findings relate to your activities and possible goals. A programme is discussed from the assessment, not copied from an online example.
