People with disabilities (PWD) face the same challenges when traveling. If you plan your trip carefully, you won’t have to deal with them as much. Before you leave, you should do a few other things, such as:
- Research
It will help if you remember that each country is different and might not have all the services and facilities your disabled family needs. For example, few countries may have non-emergency medical transportation services, but some might not have this kind of service.
It would be best to double-check that any services you require, such as airport service, or accommodations, are available before making your travel arrangements. - Medical Equipment and Supplies
If your disabled loved one has a medical condition that could jeopardize their health or safety, you should always bring their medical supplies. If the place you’re going to doesn’t have the necessary equipment for people with disabilities, you may need to bring your own. - Travel Protection
Try to ensure that you have the right kind of travel insurance to cover your needs because some might only cover financial losses. You can get quotes from disability organizations and compare them to find the best deal that includes medical evacuation in an emergency.
