Confirm the facility's responsible-adult policy before arranging transportation. A transportation driver may not satisfy a facility's requirement for a responsible adult.

Before the Procedure

  • Confirm check-in and expected discharge time
  • Ask whether a responsible adult is required
  • Discuss mobility after the procedure
  • Provide wheelchair information if relevant
  • Explain home entrance or building access
  • Plan the return trip in advance
Hospital Discharge Planning

Transportation Needs Can Change After a Hospital Stay

A passenger may arrive at the hospital walking independently but need a different transportation arrangement when leaving.

After the hospital determines that the passenger is ready for discharge, transportation should reflect current mobility, transfer ability, wheelchair or stretcher needs, travel distance and access at the Lake Ridge destination.

Discharge Information to Have Ready

  • Hospital or facility pickup location
  • Estimated release time
  • Passenger mobility after discharge
  • Wheelchair or stretcher requirements
  • Lake Ridge destination address
  • Steps, elevators or building access conditions
  • Responsible-adult requirements, if applicable
