## What to include in your fax to SickKids

Complete the applicable consent or authorization with the patient, care dates, records and recipient. SickKids’ records instructions require consent signed on or after the treatment date.

## Check the destination and prepare your cover page

Name the SickKids department, your contact person if known, the document title and the total page count. Provide a callback number. Put personal, policy or account details only where the recipient’s form requires them.

Check the official source and recipient instructions before sending. A reviewed source confirms a published number, not live availability.

## Confirm delivery and follow up with SickKids

These are fax destinations, not voice support lines. Keep the transmission result and a copy of the documents. Confirm with the receiving department that the packet is complete and can be processed; a delivery receipt does not establish acceptance or a decision. Check with that department before sending a duplicate.
