you happy or unhappy? Do you have any special
requests or preferences regarding your future

would you like to avoid happening to you? What
are your wishes regarding resuscitation ie CPR?

about any thing or any one, that you would like
others to know about? Is there anything that
you would like to know more about? eg benefit
advice Have we missed anything? I consent to
sharing a summary of the information in this
