The DA was designed as a 25-page booklet (letter-sized paper) with treatment options, toxicity and survival information illustrated in graphic (as well as numeric and verbal) format for use during the consultation, which patients could then take home, with an audiorecording.
In the main survey, participants received an advance postcard alerting them to the study, followed a week later by a professionally designed postal survey pack containing a survey booklet (covering letter, information sheet, consent form and questionnaire) and a freepost return envelope.
b) Layout of a booklet containing information, letter of informed consent and instructions for the collection of blood samples.
This consisted of an information booklet and a letter requesting return of a signed consent form indicating participation.
Ahead of the CD session, participants were posted a copy of the survey booklet plus a letter requesting that they read and/or complete the survey booklet no more than one day before the interview.
Eligible women who matched the selection criteria were identified by a research nurse at each clinic and sent a study information booklet, an invitation letter, and consent form, along with the results of their smear test.
The contents of the educational seminars were summarised in two booklets and a letter to the parents.
Sending the booklet followed by one letter of reminder has enabled a return rate approaching 50%.
Personnel at each site sent a covering letter, information booklet, questionnaire and reply-paid envelope to the patient within 3 weeks of the call.
Click2Mail has postcard, letter, flier, booklet, or certified mail templates to use.
