To ensure your trip goes well and you come home in good health, we've put together a Travel Health Checklist for you.

THINGS TO DO BEFORE YOU LEAVE

Book your travel insurance. Travel Insurance should include cover for unforeseen events that might happen while you are overseas and medical evacuations.

Get a dental check-up before you leave. It can be quite difficult to get good, affordable dental care while you are travelling so make sure those pearly whites are good before you go.

Book an appointment to see a travel doctor at International Travel vaccination Centre (ITVC) at least 6-8 weeks before you leave. This will help you make sure you are well prepared for your destination and the travel doctor can give you destination specific advice regarding the health risks and vaccinations for you intended destination.

Purchase an appropriate travellers medical kit and remember to pack it. Travel Gastropack from ITVC Include anti-diarrhoea medication such as Lomotil, Fasign, Maxolon, Noroxin, Gastrolyte Senakot –– in your travel kit.

Emergency Malaria treatment may be needed if medical advice is not available. Discuss with your ITVC travel Doctor stand by Malaria medication with you in your medical kit if you’re not taking Prophylaxis malaria medication.

Register your contact details and travel plans with the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (Smart Traveller) so they can contact you or your family in the event of an emergency (such as natural disaster orTerrorism).

Check for health alerts and warnings and other destination advice with Smart Traveller.

See your doctor about prescription medications you need to take with you and to get a letter from your doctor with the list of medications you will be taking with you. Make sure you have enough of those medications and pack them in your carry-on luggage.
