Most people spend lots of >me researching their holiday including flights, where to stay, which sites to visit, how to get around, etc. and forget the most important part of any trip, how to stay healthy.
Travel Plans We advise that you make an appointment to see us at least 6 weeks before your departure date and preferably as soon as you book your >ckets. This will allow us sufficient >me to review your travel plans and work out which vaccines, you need, the content of your emergency travel kit including medica>ons to be packed and any special requirements unique to your travel circumstances. Mul>ple factors need to be considered when planning your travel vaccines. • Des>na>ons you will visit? • Your Age? • Your Sex? • Whether you are pregnant? • Will you be travelling with Children? • Do you have any Chronic or Pre-‐exis>ng medical problems? • Do you suffer from mo>on sickness? • Will you be visi>ng places at high al>tude? • Are you Immunocompromised? • Your mode of travel – flights, cruise? • Your length of stay at each des>na>on? • Are you a student? • The standard and loca>on of your accommoda>on? • Will you be doing any mission or disaster relief? • Will you be visi>ng family and friends? • Your previous vaccine history?
