Third stage – handover – the doctor and patient make a plan together 4. Fourth stage – **safety netting** – a _contingency plan_ is formed and this covers the patient and the doctor if the doctor has got the diagnosis wrong or if something unprecedented happens. 5. Fifth stage – **housekeeping** – helps to acknowledge and deal with any _emotions arising from the consultation_ before we see the next patient.
