Trips are a fun way to explore the world. Get to places you’ve never been to. Take selfies against those dramatic cliffs. And sometimes, get hurt and end up with a broken arm or leg. If that happens, here’s what you can do.
Get help
Know where the nearest hospital is and get medical attention fast, the Thrillist says. You wouldn’t want to delay, especially if delayed treatment can make the situation worse. Ask for and call the local emergency response number.
Get a charter
If you’ve undergone surgery and you want to go home, getting on a flight with other passengers is out of the question. You’re recovering from surgery, after all. The best way for you to get home as soon as possible is to hire chartered aircraft escort services.
Choose wisely
Not all medical escort services fit the bill, though. You’ll want to do a bit of research before you choose one. Start by checking out the company’s background and history. How long has the firm been around? That should help you identify top service providers in the industry.
Check out services
Find out the kind of escort services the company offers. Do they have a flight coordinator? That may not seem important but having someone else arrange the flights so you can focus on your recovery is a godsend. You’ll have less to worry about on your trip home.
Are they qualified?
When you choose an escort service to get you home, make sure they’re qualified. Are they registered nurses? Good to know. That way, if you need to have your wounds dressed during the flight or if you need medication applied to the area, then an experienced nurse and air travel companion won’t have any problems providing you with the help and assistance you need until you get back home.
