Case framing

In a case review in which a clinician thinks aloud, a clinical team examined a question about a provisional care plan. The lead used “let me think about that” to make the grammar target precise while discussing a provisional care plan. A colleague said: “Let me think about that. The short version is that I would choose the shorter care pathway.” The group checked the implications of a provisional care plan against the available evidence before deciding.

Decision follow-up

When a concern surfaced, the team returned to “what I am trying to say is” while examining the implications of a provisional care plan. The lead added: “What I am trying to say is that the plan is promising, but it needs a clearer limit.” Before closing, the facilitator linked “let me put that differently” to the issue of a provisional care plan, named an owner and set a review date. The decision kept evidence about a provisional care plan visible while leaving room to revise the plan in the clinical context.
