  "short_answer": "A missed appointment alone does not prove unwillingness to seek care. Clarify the stage and barrier: contact, confirmation, suitable outward and return travel, costs, language, format and continuation. Help at one stage transfers no universal authority to relatives. Local services and terms need confirmation; remote contact does not automatically replace attendance. Do not independently change treatment or remove essential help. New sudden confusion alone needs immediate appropriate local emergency medical assistance.",
