The last thing you want to think about when planning a trip overseas is your health. However, did you know that 50-75% of foreign travelers experience some form of illness while out of the country?
Whether you are traveling for pleasure, business, study abroad or global missions, it’s important to ensure your international travel vaccinations are up to date.
Even people without a medical condition should receive valuable, health protecting international travel immunizations. Travelers can be affected by changes in altitude, humidity, temperature, water quality and sanitary conditions.
The appropriate international travel immunizations are determined on factors such as your destination, length of stay, activities and accommodations. Our qualified travel health practitioners can use this information to assess whether your health risks will be low, high or somewhere in between.
Jean Bagin, MSN, FNP, APRN-BC, is one of only a few health care professionals who have earned a Certificate in Travel Health from the International Society of Travel Medicine. The certificate is a result of a rigorous exam and is recognition of excellence in knowledge in travel medicine, particularly pre-travel care and consultation.
Before you pack a bag for your next trip, be sure to add an international travel consultation appointment to your to-do list. And if necessary, get the proper international travel shots based on your specific needs.
