    ];

    //...

<?php

namespace {

    use SilverStripe\CMS\Controllers\ContentController;
    use SilverStripe\Forms\FieldList;
    use SilverStripe\Forms\FormAction;
    use SilverStripe\Forms\Form;
    use JasonLoeve\NHIValidator\Forms\NHIValidatorField;

    class PageController extends ContentController
    {
        private static $allowed_actions = [
            'PatientForm',
        ];
        
        public function PatientForm()
        {
            $fields = FieldList::create(
                NHIValidatorField::create('NHINumber', 'NHINumber')
            );

            $actions = FieldList::create(
                FormAction::create('handleSubmit', 'Submit')
            );

            return Form::create($this, 'PatientForm', $fields, $actions);
        }

        public function handleSubmit($data, Form $form)
        {
            //...
        }
    }
}
