When traveling to different countries, plan on addressing your health needs at least 2 months before you leave.
 

All countries have their own list of recommended immunizations.  Contact your primary care provider or a certified travel clinic to find out what immunizations you will need.

Before you travel, make sure you and your children are up-to-date on your regular immunizations.

Remember to pack these important items:

• Prescription medications
• Over-the-counter medications you usually take
• Health insurance ID
  

Food and water precautions:

• Drink only bottled water or boiled water.
• Only eat food that is fully cooked.
