When to use it

Link communication requirements to two-way picture/audio tests at actual positions and to pause and alternative-support arrangements.

This form does not automatically establish that remote support is appropriate for a person. Do not shift the decision entirely to the participant; discuss alternatives with the person, provider and organiser.

Open a record when preparing the work. Link later checks and changes using the same item ID.

What to have ready

  • Restricted record IDs for communication/support requests
  • Actual seating and AV paths and interpreter/programme/alternative contacts
  1. Record only necessary communication needs and identify actual positions.

  2. Test face/hands, reverse views and the complete Q&A loop.

  3. Separate technical results from user checks and confirm pause/alternative handover.
