About
Let's make better instructions!
Templates
The main goal of the project is to improve colonoscopy patient education by designing better bowel prep instructions for GI clinics, endoscopy centers, and health systems.
These prep instructions templates are free to use and adapt for your clinic.
Research
The project is built on current research from quality improvement and patient education studies. Prep Folder also conducts original research to inform the development of our templates.
Feedback
Your input is valuable to us as we continue to improve our templates and resources.
The project is growing and evolving as we gather feedback from clinics.

Background
My name is Gary Ashwal.
I have been making patient education projects since 2006. A few years ago, I got very interested in bowel prep instructions. Can you guess how old I am?
There's plenty of evidence that clear instructions can improve outcomes for patients and clinics. But many clinics still use instructions that don't align with health literacy principles.
This project is my effort to design better prep instructions that every clinic can use.
