Three tools you can try directly — no login required. Each one is grounded in a real, established framework, and each one feeds into the same underlying picture.
These aren't one-off forms. Each time you engage with one of these models, you're adding something real to the picture — and the more you share over time, the more accurately this can advocate for you.
This works both ways. The more you share, the more the alliance can genuinely understand your situation — recognising patterns, flagging what's changed, and reporting your actual, current needs to a health practitioner as required, not on a fixed schedule regardless of whether anything's changed.
An example: an older person has a fall at home. Reflecting on it through the Critical Incident Technique doesn't just record what happened — it updates the underlying risk picture, and can point toward the right next step, such as an occupational health assessment, or a review of assistive technology that could help prevent a repeat. It can also work the other way: surfacing real research on fall-prevention, or connecting you to where others have faced the same thing — so by the time you next speak with a practitioner, you both arrive informed.
George Engel introduced the biopsychosocial model in 1977, challenging medicine's narrow focus on purely physical illness. It's taught and applied globally across nursing, psychiatry, and general practice — biological, psychological, and social factors, mapped together, as the foundation everything else is built on. Completing a proper assessment first means nothing that follows is guesswork.
Try the assessmentDeveloped in 1954, originally for aviation psychology, Flanagan's method is now used worldwide across nursing, education, and aviation to study what actually happens in a significant moment — real, examined events, not vague impressions. Examined this way, a single incident can reveal something worth addressing before it becomes a pattern.
