Who this template is for
Pre-Surgery Assessment 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 27 questions across 3 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.
- 17 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.
- It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
- Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
- Splitting the form across 3 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 — 4 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features conditional validation: if “Have you had an anaesthetic before?” is Yes, “Any problem with a previous anaesthetic?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features conditional validation: if “Are you taking blood-thinning medication?” is Yes, “Which medication, and has anyone advised you to stop it?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features conditional validation: if “Will an adult be at home with you for the first night?” is No, “What arrangements are in place?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features conditional validation: if “Do you have diabetes?” is Yes, “How is your diabetes managed?” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form
Does this replace consent for the operation?
No. Consent is a separate conversation recorded with the Consent to Treatment Form; this assessment establishes whether the patient can proceed safely and what needs arranging.
Should the form tell patients when to stop medication?
No. It flags what they take so a clinician can give instructions; automated stop advice from a form is not safe and should never be built into it.
How far ahead should it be sent?
Far enough that a flagged medicine or a missing lift home can be resolved without moving the date — usually two to three weeks before the procedure.
Is it suitable for day surgery only?
It works for both. The third page matters most for day cases, where going home the same evening depends on the arrangements it asks about.
Is the Pre-Surgery Assessment template free to use?
Yes. You can preview and test Pre-Surgery Assessment 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 Pre-Surgery Assessment template ask for?
It asks 27 questions across 3 pages, 17 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.
Can I edit the Pre-Surgery Assessment form after copying it?
