What happens if a traveler needs medical attention?
Every tour is equipped with standard safety and medical preparations: first aid kits, bottled water and on-call medical-professional staff. All of our Teacher Program Leaders are CPR certified, trained to administer basic first aid, and travel with copies of student medical data forms at all times. Although our solid planning, precautions and safety practices have ensured that no student traveler has ever suffered any injury on our tours, Friendship Tours World is prepared for issues requiring emergency medical care. Our emergency response is supported by quality in-country medical facilities akin to American “Urgent Care” centers. In the unlikely event of an emergency, we contact parents immediately. Friendship Tours World promises clear and candid communication with parents regardless of the severity of the concern.
