Aftercare instruction sheets

Nine one-page sheets for patients to take home, in large type and plain words. Each one answers the same five questions, with blanks for the timings your doctors give and your clinic’s emergency number.

What is in the pack

The nine sheetsLaser hair removal; filler; botulinum toxin; chemical peel; PRP and mesotherapy; minor surgery and stitches; physiotherapy home exercises; cosmetic surgery; starting a nutrition plan.
The same five partsWhat is normal today, what to do, what to avoid and for how long, when to call us, and the clinic emergency number with the next appointment.
Timings left to youDurations are blank lines (“for ...... days”) so your doctor writes the timing they use. The sheets give no medicine doses.
Extra tablesThe home exercise sheet has an exercise table (sets, repetitions, times a day). The cosmetic surgery sheet has a drain log and follow-up dates.
Your letterhead on eachEvery sheet carries its own letterhead, so you can print one sheet on its own.

How to use it

  1. Fill in your timings

    Open the Word file and replace each blank with the timing your doctors use, then save it as your clinic’s version.

  2. Add the emergency number

    Write the number patients should call out of hours on every sheet.

  3. Hand it over at the end of the visit

    Go through the sheet with the patient before they leave, and write the next appointment on it.

  4. Send it as well

    Send the PDF on WhatsApp the same day, so the patient has it on their phone.

Who it is for

Dermatology and aesthetic clinics, minor surgery and plastic surgery clinics, physiotherapy centres and nutrition clinics. The Arabic file runs right to left in large Arabic type; the English file is the same nine sheets in English.

Questions

Why are the timings blank?

Timings depend on the product, the device and the doctor’s protocol. Your doctor writes the ones they use, so the sheet never contradicts what they said.

Do the sheets give medicine advice?

No. They say to take medicines as prescribed and to ask before taking pain relief. Doses come from the doctor.

Can I add a procedure?

Yes. Copy any sheet in the Word file and rewrite the five sections for your procedure.

Why one page each?

One page is read. Patients keep it on the fridge or on their phone, and it prints on its own.

Instructions sent after every visit

In Medicolize the right instructions go to the patient on WhatsApp automatically after the visit, on the same thread as their reminders. Thirty minutes on your own clinic.
