- Which medical records to send, and what to do without themA discharge summary and imaging of the affected area are the minimum. Send what you have — the plan is still written, the estimate is just wider.
- What to bring, including what people forgetMedication in original packaging, the imaging, familiar footwear and the walking aid already in use — and a separate list for the companion.
- Travelling by stretcher or with a medical escortFor patients who cannot travel seated: airline approval, medical clearance and an escort — and at least two weeks of notice.
