Who this template is for

Discharge Follow-Up Form is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in healthcare & clinical.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 16 questions across 2 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 11 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features conditional validation: if “How are you feeling compared with discharge day?” is Worse, “What is worse?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Did you collect and start the medication you were sent home with?” is No, “What stopped you?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Do you know when your follow-up appointment is?” is No, the form dynamically exposes “Would you like someone to call you?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

Can a nurse complete it over the phone?

Yes, and that is often the point — the wording is written to be read aloud to a patient who is tired, and the answers still record consistently.

How does it relate to the Home Health Assessment?

This is the short check in the first week. The Home Health Assessment is the fuller three-page visit covering the home environment, mobility and care needs in detail.

Should it be used for urgent problems?

No. Say so in the intro and give the number to call instead; the form is reviewed during working hours and is not a substitute for urgent care.

Can we send it more than once?

Yes. A second submission at two weeks shows direction of travel, and comparing the same questions is more useful than adding new ones.

Is the Discharge Follow-Up Form template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test Discharge Follow-Up Form on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

What does the Discharge Follow-Up Form template ask for?

It asks 16 questions across 2 pages, 11 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.
