What is a Travel Health Appointment at Staffordshire Travel Care?
At Staffordshire Travel Care, run from your local Cornwell's Chemists, we offer comprehensive, personalised consultations to ensure you stay safe and healthy on your journey. But what is a travel health appointment, and what should you expect?
Your Personalised Risk Assessment
This is not a one-size-fits-all service. Your appointment with our expert pharmacist is a detailed, one-to-one consultation tailored specifically to you. We take the time to understand:
Your Destination and Itinerary:
Where exactly are you going? Are you staying in cities, or will you be travelling to rural areas with higher risk of exposure to certain diseases?
Your Activities:
Will you be working with animals, hiking, or just relaxing on a beach? Your activities determine your risk level.
Your Health History:
We review your current medications, any pre-existing health conditions, and your previous vaccination history to ensure any recommendations are safe and suitable for you.
Recommended Protection and Advice
Based on your assessment, our pharmacist will provide expert guidance on essential health precautions, including:
Travel Vaccinations:
We stock and administer a full range of travel vaccines, including Yellow Fever (as we are a certified centre), Hepatitis A, Typhoid, and more. We will create a personalised vaccine schedule for you.
Malaria Prevention:
If your destination has a risk of malaria, we will discuss and can dispense the most appropriate anti-malarial tablets and provide crucial bite avoidance advice.
General Health Advice:
This covers everything from managing traveller's diarrhoea and preventing insect bites to altitude sickness prevention and keeping your existing medications safe while abroad.
