How Corporate Care Travel Medicine Helps Your Workforce Travel With Confidence

Business travel opens doors, connecting your organization to opportunities around the world. But healthy travel starts before takeoff.

At AdventHealth Corporate Care, our travel medicine services help protect your team before, during and after every trip. From required vaccines and preventive care to expert guidance, we make it easier for your team members to stay healthy, productive and ready for what’s ahead — no matter where their travels take them.

Why Travel Medicine Matters for Employers

There are health risks for team members who travel internationally, especially to developing regions. In fact, up to 64% of travelers to these areas experience travel-related health problems — from minor illnesses to more serious conditions.

These challenges don’t just affect individuals. Travel-related illness and injury cost U.S. businesses an estimated $650 million in lost productivity annually. The good news? Many of these risks are preventable with the right preparation.

“Providing travel medicine services is more than just offering necessary vaccines. Our services protect your team members’ full well-being so they can focus on their work and return home safely,” says Occupational Health Medical Director Evan Lowe, MD. “At AdventHealth Corporate Care, our approach focuses on proactive, whole-person care tailored to each traveler and destination.”

Pre-Travel Care: Preparing With Purpose

Before your team members depart for their trip, our team provides comprehensive pre-travel consultations that include:

• Destination-specific risk assessments based on region, climate and current health concerns
• Required and recommended vaccinations to help prevent serious illness
• Preventive medications, such as antimalarials, when appropriate
• Education on food and water safety, insect bite prevention and environmental risks like altitude sickness

“Preparation is one of the most powerful tools we have,” says Dr. Lowe. “With the right guidance, many travel-related illnesses can be avoided entirely.”

Personalized Support for Every Traveler

No two trips or travelers are the same. That’s why our care is tailored to individual needs, medical history and itinerary. This level of preparation empowers team members to take control of their health, even when far from home.

We help team members prepare for the unexpected by:

• Recommending and assembling travel medical kits
• Providing guidance on managing minor illnesses while abroad
• Offering clear next steps if symptoms arise during travel

Post-Travel Care: Continued Support When It Matters

Care doesn’t stop when the trip ends. If an employee becomes ill during or after travel, AdventHealth Corporate Care offers post-travel evaluations to quickly diagnose and treat conditions.

Early evaluation can make a significant difference, helping prevent complications and supporting a faster return to work and daily life.

Travel Medicine Protects Your Team and Your Business

Without proper preparation, team members may face preventable health risks or even be denied entry into certain countries due to missing required vaccinations. Travel medicine helps ensure compliance with international requirements while prioritizing safety.

More importantly, it supports your workforce in a meaningful way.

“When employers invest in travel medicine, they’re investing in their people,” Dr. Lowe explains. “It’s about helping team members feel confident, cared for and ready — physically and mentally — for the journey ahead.”

Whole-Person Care, Wherever Work Takes You

At AdventHealth Corporate Care, we believe health care should support every aspect of life, including work and travel. Our travel medicine services are designed to provide peace of mind, reduce risk and help your team members feel whole, no matter where their business takes them.

Because when your team is healthy and supported, they can go further and do more with confidence.
