We, at Viraj Magical Trips take all necessary precautions to avoid any type of medical issues during the tour/trip. So we take a proper medical certificate from each of our traveller which certifies that they are medically fit to be a part of the tour/trip. Also, before making a trip, it is important to carry out certain medical tests to verify the state of health and avoid future problems. But what are the main and recommendable checks for the traveller? What elements are recommended to ask the family doctor before leaving for the destination country or any kind of tour? What should be contemplated, if the traveller has a pre-existing disease ?

Some general medical advice to keep in mind before travelling

Beyond age, it is recommended that a general medical check-up should be done before the trip (about 3 or 4 weeks before). In turn, receive the appropriate personalized advice from your Doctor if you have any medical history (pregnancy, pre-existing diseases, etc.). On the other hand, if you have been exposed to any surgical procedures, it becomes essential to consult with a medical specialist to verify whether or not you are fit to travel.

Also, do not forget to ask the doctor for the vaccination plan according to your age and the country you visit. Finally, request a copy of your medical history which can be an excellent tool to help for any possible health problems during the tour.

What happens in the case of travellers who have a chronic condition?

In effect, if a traveller have any type of pre-existing diseases, we advise you to consider the following :

• Verify that the medical coverage accepted includes coverage for pre-existing diseases, since in most cases, they do not have it. Thus, a possible complication during the tour will be avoided.
• Conduct studies and discuss a health prevention plan with your doctor.
• Carry the medication in its original containers.
• Ask your doctor for prescribed prescriptions in case you lose or finish the one you have taken to administer during the trip.
• Also ask for a medical certificate that certifies the pre-existing illness, for which you take the medication that is in your luggage. This way, it will avoid possible problems in the airports and will be able to present it before the corresponding airport security.

So, now you know everything you need in relation to medical check-ups. Finally, remember that the VMT Assist Service can provide medical security and personal & family tranquility during the trip to each of our clients.
