The Empowered Patient Coalition provides resources enabling patients to take control of their medical treatments.

SBAR (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation) is a standardized communication tool that was developed by Kaiser Permanente to help health care professionals share critical information with efficiency and accuracy. We have designed our own SBAR form for patients and advocates to use to relay clinical information to a health care professional. The form will help you organize your observations and questions to present vital information using a format that is familiar to professionals.
