Hello folks!
Just a quick note to remind you to go to my website to contact me before you get to Negril! You can enter travel dates, where you are staying, allergies and any other significant medical history you want me to know.
Let your hotel know you want me to be called if illness or injury presents itself. Majority of hotels know of my services but at night you cannot rely on the staff always. Keep my number handy! I carry a medic bag and AED if necessary to provide immediate needs and will assist to get you higher level of care or get you where you need to go in an emergency. Not all issues need an ambulance and some hotels just call them which can accrue high cost and may not be necessary. Many calls do not require physician also. I will collaborate with physicians or services if needed. Physicians aren't always in town and live outside Negril which takes time to get to any call...while during the day they run clinic with patients! TIME is not to be wasted on waiting for help!
See thread on here under MEDICAL EMERGENCIES also to get more information and feedback.
