Who this guide helps
Households coordinating several professionals
The short answer
Ask each provider what they are qualified and contracted to do. Functional assessment, clinical advice, design, building work and product supply are distinct services.
Practical workflow
Map the desired task and identify the proposed provider for each stage. Ask how findings are shared with consent and who checks technical feasibility. Request qualifications and relevant licensing verification where applicable. Keep health information limited to what each provider needs.
What a useful handoff looks like
Create a responsibility table for recommendations, drawings, permits where required, installation and handover. Ask what happens if a proposed design cannot be built. Confirm who coordinates revisions and who pays for additional review.
Mistakes to avoid
Do not assume a contractor can provide clinical recommendations or that an assessment professional approves every structural detail. Credentials and scope must be checked locally.
Working example: fields to record

| Information boundary | Consent-based sharing only |
| Design question | Qualified review of feasibility |
Add your own entries; the example is illustrative. Keep sensitive information private.
