    I’ve been in this position before and the hospital authorised a taxi for me @sam12 which they paid for. It’s a really scary position to be in though. Since then I’ve always tried to make sure I have cash saved in case I need to go to the hospital unexpectedly, but I know that’s not always an option for everyone. Hospitals also should be able to offer you transport home too! There are some charities that do lifts there and back too but that’s usually for scheduled appointments.
