Rewrite the patient handout below in plain language at a [READING_LEVEL] reading level. I am an administrator, not a clinician, so do not change any clinical facts, doses, times, or warnings. Your job is clarity and layout only. A clinician will review the result before it is used. Remove any real patient names or identifiers before pasting.

Original text: [PASTE_HANDOUT_TEXT]

Return:
BEFORE: the original sentences that are hardest to understand, with a short reason for each.
AFTER: the rewritten handout with short sentences, active voice, explained terms, headings, and numbered steps where order matters. Keep any warning signs and instructions on when to contact the practice exactly as in the original, formatted so they stand out.
CHANGES MADE: a list of what you simplified.
FOR CLINICIAN REVIEW: any sentence where simplifying could change the meaning, and any term you were unsure about.

Do not add advice that was not in the original. Finally, suggest how to test the new version with three patients (a teach-back question to ask).

The support here is administrative and about communication; it is not medical, clinical or legal advice. Remove patient identifiers before pasting anything. Before use, a clinician, compliance officer or practice manager familiar with [JURISDICTION] should check the output.

BEFORE: "Patients should refrain from consuming food or beverage for a period of eight hours prior to the procedure." [hard to read]
AFTER: "Do not eat or drink for 8 hours before your appointment. If you take regular medicines, follow the instructions from your care team."
CHANGES MADE: split long sentence; active voice; removed "refrain"; kept the 8-hour figure exactly.
FOR CLINICIAN REVIEW: "regular medicines" sentence (I added a pointer to the care team; confirm wording). Warning signs section left exactly as in the original.
Teach-back test: ask three patients, "What time will you stop eating?" and see whether they answer correctly.

Illustrative only, made-up data. Your results will differ and must be reviewed.
