What does the appointment involve?

The doctor records current health status, current medicines, mobility, cognitive function and care needs, and completes the care home's admission form. The report is factual and gives the home what it needs to plan care.

Is there anything else I should know?

Bring the care home's own form and a current medicines list. If you can, a GP summary from the NHS App helps the report be complete.
