Pre-travel care, with its focus on disease prevention and health promotion, is the cornerstone of travel health nursing practice. Pre-travel nursing services include risk assessment, immunizations, health counseling, and referrals. Individual travel health and safety risks vary and depend upon a number of different factors. These include: traveler health status, destination, trip duration, season of travel, type of accommodation, trip activities, and prevention efforts. More than 35% of U.S. international travel is business travel. Occupational health nurses have an important role to play to keep traveling employees, including frequent flyers, long stay expatriates, and special needs travelers, healthy, safe, and productive in the "global marketplace."
旅行前护理以疾病预防和健康促进为重点，是旅行健康护理实践的基石。旅行前护理服务包括风险评估、免疫接种、健康咨询和转诊。个人旅行健康和安全风险各不相同，取决于许多不同因素。这些因素包括：旅行者健康状况、目的地、旅行持续时间、旅行季节、住宿类型、旅行活动以及预防措施。超过35%的美国国际旅行是商务旅行。职业健康护士在确保包括常旅客、长期驻外人员和特殊需求旅行者在内的出行员工在“全球市场”中保持健康、安全并高效工作方面发挥着重要作用。
