IN BRIEF

Airport, hospital, hotel, intercity transport and family schedules are best connected around confirmed hospital times.

What to keep in mind

Before intercity travel, confirm the hospital campus, arrival time, expected duration and how changes will be communicated. Before medical milestones are clear, choose transport and accommodation that can be changed or cancelled.

How to plan the next step

Airport transfers, intercity travel, attraction transfers and private vehicles are non-medical services. Routes, durations and scope should be documented when the journey is confirmed.
