My Ds struggles with forms and taking in information so I deal with them alongside him, making sure he understands. I also make telephone calls on his behalf as this is something he really struggles with.
Thank you, I think I will call at the doctors next week and set this up. I mentioned this at our GP's a while ago as they wouldn't give me a password to order his medication online, but I was allowed to order it on his behalf by phone (presumably because online there is also access to his medical notes). I think the receptionist said that we would have to discuss with a doctor first. I need to get organised with this I think, sooner rather than later x
