What you need to register

  • Personal contact details: phone number(s) and email address to receive messages.
  • Preferred language and time availability for non-urgent notifications.
  • Alternate contacts if you want a family member or caregiver to be notified.
  • Any special needs or accessibility preferences you can enter where the registration form allows it.
