Planning a rehabilitation transfer in China

Confirm who will receive you

Ask the treating team which level of rehabilitation care is appropriate. Confirm that the receiving facility has reviewed the case and can provide the agreed services. Check the admission route, language support and fees directly.

Prepare the handover file

Ask the sending team for the discharge summary, relevant operation and imaging reports, current medication list, functional assessment and rehabilitation plan. Check which files need translation and how the two teams will transfer them securely.

Settle the transfer and follow-up details

Ask the treating team to confirm what transport and assistance are appropriate. Record the admission contact, appointment details and follow-up responsibilities. Ask whom to contact if the transfer is delayed or the receiving facility cannot admit you.
