Summer Travel Health Tips to Know
Planning a summer getaway? Whether you’re hitting the beach, flying abroad, or visiting family out of state, staying healthy while traveling is just as important as packing your sunscreen.
Before You Go:
-
Refill prescriptions: Make sure you have enough medication for the entire trip (plus a few extra days).
-
Pack a mini first-aid kit: Include essentials like pain relievers, allergy meds, bandages, and hand sanitizer.
-
Get any needed vaccines: Traveling internationally? Check if destination-specific vaccines or boosters are recommended.
-
Stay current on wellness: If you have a chronic condition like asthma, diabetes, or high blood pressure, visit your primary care provider or urgent care for a quick check-up before traveling.
While Traveling:
-
Wash hands often and use sanitizer in high-traffic areas like airports or rest stops.
-
Drink plenty of water, especially during flights or hot weather travel.
-
Use insect repellent in areas with mosquitoes or ticks.
-
Wear sunscreen and reapply every two hours when outdoors.
