Aftercare: Medication, Follow-up & Going Home
What to arrange before you leave — medication continuity, follow-up plans, and sending results home.
Your care doesn’t end at the airport. Here’s how to plan a smooth transition home.
Medication continuity
- Ask your doctors for a written medication plan (what, dose, how long).
- Request sufficient medication for the journey and the follow-up period.
- For ongoing medication, ask about supply arrangements or prescriptions your home doctor can continue.
- Carry medications in original packaging with a translated list (for customs).
Follow-up
- Ask for a follow-up schedule and what to check when you’re home.
- Request an English discharge summary and results to share with your home doctor.
- Many hospitals offer teleconsultation follow-up after you return.
Sending results home
- Ask for digital copies (PDF) of reports, imaging, and results to keep and share.
- Keep a central folder (paper + digital) of everything — diagnosis, treatment, medications, and follow-up.
