Travel Health Advice – How to provide effective consultations

Advice must be tailored for every client

  • Within clinic, you will be faced with a wide variety of people asking for help with a huge range of issues
  • Each individual person with a specific need must be dealt with accordingly. *There is no formula for how to deal with problems, you must make a judgement*
  • To make judgements easier, it helps to prepare in advance of every consultation and appointment with knowledge of how to find information as quickly as possible
  • If not 100% sure on a judgement, consult online databases described in this course such as NaTHNaC, Travax and fitfortravel
  • Ultimately, anything decided must be the decision of the patient, your job is simply to inform the recipient of all the options available with all the information you possess
