Disability Report Pre-Assessment

This questionnaire helps your GP prepare your disability report. Your answers are not copied directly — they give your doctor a picture of how your condition affects your daily life, so they can complete the report as accurately as possible.

Takes approximately 10–15 minutes to complete. You can save your answers by keeping this page open.

📋 Important — please read before you start
This form is for patients attending Kinsealy Medical Centre who have been asked to complete a pre-assessment before a disability report appointment. Your answers help your GP — they are not submitted directly to the Department of Social Protection. Your doctor will prepare the official report based on your full medical history and this questionnaire.

Basic details so we can match this to your record.

2 — Your Condition

Tell us about the condition(s) affecting your ability to work or carry out daily activities.

For each area below, select the option that best describes how your condition affects you on a typical day. Use the comment box to add any extra detail that would help your doctor.
