N2  - Evacuating ill or injured expatriates on international assignments from globally challenging locations is a potent source of concern for individuals who are involved before, during, and after overseas assignments. It is essential to minimize the risk for such evacuations and to make the evacuations proceed as smoothly and safely as possible. The first half of this article addresses the planning and processes that are required to make inevitable medical evacuations as safe and smooth as possible. The second half reviews the non-medical consequences that medical and security evacuations can have for employees, dependents, and employers.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
