Things to talk through with your family/ carers/ support team:

Remembering Appointments
“Occupational Therapy supported an individual who was having difficulty remembering
appointments. A weekly planner was used for the individual to write in appointments and activities
that they had on each day. At the beginning the individual needed support to write in activities,
however, with practice, they are now able to write in their own activities and remember to attend
appointments.”
