During your
appointment you will:
- Meet your
Advocate and review your personal concerns;
- Be tested
for pregnancy, review your medical history and receive an
ultrasound exam, if necessary;
- Receive
information about all of your options and your
Personalized Solutions Assessment with a customized list
of referrals.
Here’s a more
detailed summary of the process:
- Your call
to our Scheduling Helpliner 825.294.1812 will
initiate a meeting with a trained
Patient Advocate, often the same or the next day.
- Your
Advocate will meet with you to understand your specific
situation.
She will spend time to understand your concerns, and will
provide you with information
about all of your pregnancy options. She will also begin
creating your Personalized Solutions Assessment,
complete with specific referrals customized to meet your
needs.
- You will
then meet with a Nurse, who will perform a urine
pregnancy test, provide you with those
pregnancy test results, and review your complete medical
history. The goal of each MyChoice Nurse
is to learn about and understand your complete situation in
order to provide you with the highest level of professional
medical care.
- Following
your positive pregnancy test, a Sonographer will
perform your ultrasound.
The purpose of that ultrasound is to confirm your pregnancy
(make sure you are actually pregnant),
and also tell you exactly how far along you are.
- After your
ultrasound exam is complete, your Advocate will
provide you with a customized list of referrals
on your Personalized Solutions Assessment. She may
schedule a follow-up appointment for you at that time
if necessary, and will ask if you have any additional
questions or concerns.
Throughout your
appointment, it is the goal of each MyChoice staff member
to provide you with compassionate
care and professional medical services.
Each Patient
Advocate and Nurse is specially trained to serve
women facing unplanned pregnancies,
so rest assured that you will receive all the information that
you need in an environment where you can feel comfortable.
