Discharge Information
Discharge planning should help you understand what has happened during your stay and what to do next. Ask the team to review the practical arrangements and your care instructions before you leave.
Ask about discharge planning
Review the care instructions
Ask for a clear explanation of medicines, activity, diet and any wound care or other needs that apply to you. Check which medicines are new, changed or stopped and who will review them. Make sure you understand any symptoms or changes that should prompt medical attention.
Collect the documents
Confirm that you have a discharge summary, relevant reports and the details of any outstanding results. Ask how later results will be communicated and whether your usual clinician will receive a summary with your consent. Keep receipts or itemised invoices needed for insurance or reimbursement.
Arrange the next stage
Confirm follow-up appointments, transport and any help needed at home. If you are travelling a long distance, discuss the timing with the treating clinician. Before leaving, know which contact to use for routine questions and how local care will be organised if additional assessment is needed.
