National > Travel > Medical Concerns:Are there any other medical precautions I should take?You might want to consider wearing a MedicAlert bracelet if you have a serious medical condition that might cause you trouble when you travel. The MedicAlert Foundation will put your important medical information in a database that can be accessed 24 hours a day from anywhere in the world. You can call 1-800-825-3785 for membership information or see the MedicAlert website. Another good idea is to take an extra pair of prescription glasses or your prescription for glasses or contact lenses in case you lose them when traveling. Also, visit the Public Health Agency of Canada website as it regularly posts health warnings for travellers.
