Planning Ahead for Safe Travel

Travel health preparation is not simply about vaccinations. It also involves understanding the specific risks of your destination, whether that is malaria, dengue, altitude sickness, traveller's diarrhoea, or food and water safety. Appropriate travel insurance is essential, ensuring that any medical costs or repatriation required are covered. Take sufficient supplies of any regular prescription medicines, and carry a letter from your prescriber explaining your treatment if you are carrying medicines that could be subject to customs restrictions. If you become unwell during or after travel, always inform your doctor of your travel history, including all countries visited and any activities undertaken, as this is vital for an accurate diagnosis.
