Start with clinic-confirmed dates
Record consultations, procedures and follow-up appointments only as provided by the responsible clinical team. Distinguish proposed and confirmed times. The coordinator should not choose intervals, assess recovery or infer when a patient is fit to travel.
Check only the support actually offered
If the clinic offers accommodation or transport coordination, compare those arrangements with the confirmed appointments. Do not imply that every clinic provides these services. Where the patient organises their own stay, record only the information necessary and authorised for the task.
Route remaining questions correctly
Separate questions about meeting points or booking references from questions about recovery and travel fitness. Prepare an administrative update with checked facts. Clinical questions remain with the qualified team and should not be answered from a generic travel template.

What if the clinic does not arrange accommodation?
Limit the record to the services actually offered and the confirmations the clinic needs.

This is one clinic's example. UNKNOWN whether there is a shared record of appointment and accommodation confirmations; the clinic determines the dates.
