How to use this list
Begin by setting aside your Photo ID, health insurance card, and appointment confirmation. Make sure your wheelchair and cushion are in good condition and ready for travel. Bring your wheelchair repair or supplier contact information in case of issues. Prepare your current medication list with doses, medication allergy list, and a list of vitamins and supplements. Add specialist contact info and any recent therapy notes if your provider requested them. Write down skin comfort or pressure-area concerns, as well as any mobility or transfer issues you want to address.

Don’t forget your payment card or copay, phone, and, if you have a personal assistant, their contact info.
Common mistakes
People sometimes forget to bring their wheelchair repair contact details or overlook small equipment issues until the day of the appointment. Leaving behind recent therapy notes or not listing current pressure-area concerns can mean missing important topics. Skipping your immunization record or specialist contact info can slow down the visit. Double-check that all paperwork is up to date and that your wheelchair is ready for transport.
