Patient Weighing Options Card for Medical Offices

Patient Weighing Options Cards allow patients to decide who in the medical office is privy to their current weight. The object of these cards for a medical office is to reduce the anxiety of patients who may avoid office visits due to concerns about being weighed in a semi-public space. Upon arrival each patient is instructed to complete a card and hand it to the person taking their vital signs to avoid singling out individual patients. If an accurate weight is essential for that particular visit, the provider can explain the necessity of an accurate weight for the patients current treatment plan.
