Local context
Local care versus returning from Västmanland
For a medical situation in Västmanland, we assess, in consultation with the treating doctors, whether local care is sufficient, whether transfer elsewhere within Sweden would be better, or whether returning to Belgium or the Netherlands is the appropriate course of action.
We ensure that families quickly gain an overview of the necessary medical information, feasible routes, the appropriate level of transport and how everything can be initiated without unnecessary delay.
Repatriation
From Västmanland to Belgium or the Netherlands: medically coordinated
For medical repatriation from Västmanland, we map out the entire route: from the place of residence or hospital, via the local ambulance phase and available ferry or airport options, to the medical documents, chosen form of transport and reception on arrival.
What is most suitable depends on the medical situation: ambulance transport, medical escort on a scheduled flight, a stretcher flight or an air ambulance are all possible options.
Repatriation is about a safe, medically responsible return home, to a hospital or to a rehabilitation centre. Comfort, mobility, pain, oxygen requirements, medical handover and practical feasibility are at least as important as the distance itself.

Case examples
An example journey from Västmanland
When a patient is admitted to a hospital in or near Västmanland, we request the medical information, assess the condition, consult with the doctors and prepare one or more options. The guiding principle always remains the same: a safe bed-to-bed handover.
If the patient is stable enough to travel, an escorted scheduled flight is often sufficient. Limited mobility is more likely to require a stretcher flight or ambulance transport; in severe or unstable situations, only an air ambulance may be suitable.
Even without an insurer's approval, Bryan Morgan Care is ready to think along with you directly about a safe solution from Västmanland.
Region and connections
Medical repatriation in the wider Västmanland area
From Västmanland, we always look at the wider region: sometimes a nearby hospital, airport or border route proves more practical than the first obvious choice.
