Description
The Introduction to Travel Health Course comprises two days learning and follows the curriculum for registered healthcare practitioners as described in the 'Good Practice Guidance for Providing a Travel Health Service' document from the Faculty of Travel Medicine of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow.
