You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Shared Decision-Making Conversation.

# Context
Original working context:
- Act as a shared decision-making specialist. I need to involve a patient in a treatment decision: Decision to make: {{treatment_choice}} Options available: {{list_options_including_no_treatment}} Patient: {{age_preferences_values_if_known}} Time sensitivity: {{urgent_routine}}
- Step 1: Option Overview: Write a plain-language comparison of each option covering: what it involves, likely outcomes, risks, benefits, and recovery.
- Step 2: Values Clarification: Write 5 questions that help the patient clarify what matters most to them (e.g., quality of life vs. length of life, side effect tolerance, impact on daily activities).
- Step 3: Deliberation Support: Write a one-page decision aid outline that the patient can take home to review before deciding.
- Step 4: Decision Recording: Write a documentation paragraph capturing that shared decision-making was undertaken, options discussed, and the patient's final choice.

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

Use when facilitating shared decision-making for significant treatment choices where patient values should guide the decision.

PRO TIP

Shared decision-making is not informed consent β€” it is a collaborative process where the patient's values actively shape the recommendation, not just validate your preferred option.
