LabelAgreed to nurse appointment (at individual interview)
Question text There are two parts to this survey. You have just helped us with the first part. We hope you will also help us with the second part, which is a visit by a qualified nurse to collect more medical information and carry out some measurements. I would like to make an appointment for the nurse to come round and explain some more about what is required. May I suggest some dates and times and see when you are free?
