Fictional example: Casey's refill routine is disrupted by transport problems.

Use an ordinary or fictional example, with a clinician when appropriate. Practical supports should be chosen collaboratively and fit the prescribed plan.

Before looking back

Choose one ordinary attempt or decide to review the fictional example instead. This journal has no scores, required disclosure, or expectation of progress.

Revisit the practice

Identify one barrier to following the agreed prescription and a reminder or access support to discuss with the team.

Notice context and impact

Record what actually happened, including an unhelpful or neutral outcome. Note resources, power differences, accessibility, and changed conditions rather than attributing everything to personal effort.

Choose a revision

Which support addresses the actual barrier? Keep the approach, change one part, ask for support, or set it aside. A mismatch is useful information.
