First Things First™

What To Do In The First Hours After The Call

Part of The First 72 Hours™ Family Crisis Navigation Collection

One phone call can change everything.

A loved one has been taken to the Emergency Department. A hospitalization becomes a medical crisis. Suddenly, family members are expected to understand complex medical information, communicate with multiple healthcare providers, and prepare for important decisions—all while coping with fear, uncertainty, and exhaustion.

First Things First™ was created to help families navigate those critical first hours with greater confidence and clarity.

This practical two-page playbook helps you gather essential information, organize communication, ask better questions, and focus on the next decision instead of becoming overwhelmed by everything at once.

Inside This Playbook

✔ A step-by-step checklist for the first hour after receiving the call

✔ Five essential questions to ask the healthcare team

✔ A simple worksheet to track key members of the care team

✔ Guidance for organizing family communication

✔ Prompts to help you prepare for decisions that may lie ahead

✔ The ClarityCare Crisis Navigation Rule:
Information First. Decisions Second.

Designed For

  • Adult children
  • Spouses and partners
  • Siblings
  • Family caregivers
  • Long-distance family members
  • Anyone responding to an unexpected hospitalization

Why Families Love It

When emotions are high, even simple decisions can feel overwhelming.

First Things First™ helps you slow down, gather the facts, and focus on what matters most right now.

You do not need to understand everything today.

You only need enough information to understand the next decision.
