IT’S OK TO ASK!

When you understand what's going on with your health, you can make better decisions around your care and treatment. That's why it's important to ask your healthcare team the right questions about your condition, and your treatment and care options.

It’s ok for you to ask your health and care professionals the “BRAN” questions:

“What are the Benefits?”
“What are the Risks?”
“What are the Alternatives?”
“What would happen if I did Nothing?”
