What to change
Explain the normal booking sequence using administrative milestones. Have the service owner confirm which steps are required, optional or dependent on an individual decision.
A worked example
Illustrative example
A fictional fitting service has an initial appointment followed by a collection visit. The page explains that collection is booked after the item arrives, rather than inviting patients to reserve both at arbitrary intervals.
How to check the result
The page lets a visitor describe the number of journeys and how the next appointment is arranged.
A mistake to avoid
Do not invent a standard interval or guaranteed completion time when the sequence depends on availability or an individual plan.
Your action checklist
Use these checks to prepare a discussion with your team or supplier. Tick a check when you have recorded the decision or evidence, rather than when a feature has simply been promised.
