Transfers

For planned transfers, please use an Embrace planned transfer booking form which should be printed, completed and faxed to Embrace. The referral will then be triaged and a transport plan agreed and communicated to you.

Transfer documentation

Transferred patients need appropriate documentation for their ongoing care. A photocopy of all recent relevant notes including the blood test results and drug prescription chart are essential for all patients.

For paediatric patients you may wish to write a letter for the accepting team.

For neonatal patients we ask that an updated Badger summary is completed.

Please PACS any important radiology images to the receiving hospital.
