Short term trips may involve conditions that increase physical or emotional stress. We suggest that it is important that you talk to your doctor before going on a trip, both to discuss past or present medical conditions and to take any recommended precautions, including ensuring that immunizations are appropriately updated.

Team Leaders and team members alike are encouraged to research individual country requirements because immunization recommendations change frequently. Suggested resources include the US Department of State, The County Health Department and The Center for Disease Control (CDC) www.cdc.gov.

Calvary encourages you to see your family doctor for his/her recommendations for you personally. Calvary does recommend that you are current on your tetanus shot. You may want to discuss other vaccines with your doctor.
