What First Step expects from you:

- Attend appointments on time. Call if you’re running late. Call in advance if you need to cancel.
- The same respectful and friendly attitude that you will see from us.
- Honest communication with your clinical team (we can’t help you if we don’t have the full picture)
Please call in advance to make an appointment, and remember to bring your Medicare Card (and Health Care Card if you have one).
