Managing those last minute to-dos before you move
The need to bring closure to your personal matters and relationships in your old community and create attachments in the new one is an important component in every move. The list of tasks at both ends of the move varies with each individual and family. Following are specific suggestions and general tips that can help guide you through the process.
Opening new bank accounts
Because many banks are regional, long-distance moves may require choosing a new bank. If possible, open an account in your new community before closing the account at your old bank. Transfer funds and anything you have in your safety deposit box.
Finding new doctors
One of the most important and personal decisions you'll make when you move is choosing a new doctor. Interview potential health-care professionals over the telephone, asking for credentials, specialties and working style. Be sure to ask questions that will give you information about the doctor's philosophy: how many patients does s/he see each day? Does s/he accept new patients? Does the doctor have time to get to know everyone individually?
Transferring prescriptions
Have a couple of months' worth of prescriptions from your doctor, and have them called in to the pharmacy in your new town. This way, you'll have time to find and get established with a new doctor.
Transferring medical records
Have copies of doctor's records and case records forwarded to your new doctor.
