As the baby boomer's generation retirees, many will have the time and money to travel abroad to see the world's exotic wonders or visit family and friends. When the travelers are elderly, they are particularly vulnerable to the effects of travel. Healthcare professionals are responsible for counseling elders on travel health based on their medical history, destination, method of transportation, and exposure risks. Important areas of travel counseling include preparing for travel, air travel, safety, sun and heat, insect precautions, food and water precautions, and vaccinations.
随着婴儿潮一代的人退休，许多人将有时间和金钱出国旅行，去观赏世界上充满异国情调的奇观，或者拜访亲朋好友。当旅行者是老年人时，他们特别容易受到旅行影响。医疗保健专业人员有责任根据老年人的病史、目的地、交通方式和接触风险，为他们提供旅行健康方面的咨询。旅行咨询的重要领域包括旅行准备、航空旅行、安全、防晒和防暑、防虫措施、食品和水的预防措施以及疫苗接种。
