** Helping travellers look after their health overseas **
Research has shown that roughly half of overseas travellers will develop a medical issue while away from home. Many of these problems are easy to manage if you know how.
This app is essential for travellers who visit places where some of the local hospitals could make you sicker than you already are.
This App is developed by Dr Deborah Mills, Australian Travel Medicine Specialist and author of the best selling book “Travelling Well” with over 140,000 copies in print worldwide. An experienced traveller herself, Dr Deb’s specialized medical expertise provides sound guidelines and critical "been there done that" information that travellers need, written in a style that’s easy to follow. Without adding any weight to your luggage or needing an internet connection, you can now use this App to safeguard your health... a traveller's most precious asset!
TRAVEL HEALTH is an essential First Aid resource for all travelers - especially for those times when you can't access your local physician.
Seeing a doctor overseas is likely to cost over $100 just to get simple advice (most travel insurance policies have an excess of $100-200 so you won't get much back). You may spend $5,000 to get overseas, so even one day of illness is costly. This app is a bargain. For a few dollars, it is good value insurance.
