Rede e Centro Nacional de Saúde de Viagens (NaTHNaC)
O NaTHNaC foi criado pelo Departamento de Saúde em 2002 com o objetivo amplo de 'Proteger a Saúde dos Viajantes Britânicos'. Eles buscam melhorar a qualidade dos conselhos de saúde para viagens fornecidos por consultórios de clínicos gerais, clínicas de viagem, farmácias e outros prestadores de serviços de saúde, além de fornecer informações atualizadas e confiáveis para o viajante internacional, a indústria de viagens e o governo nacional.
They are commissioned by Agência de Segurança em Saúde do Reino Unido and hosted by Fundo de Confiança dos Hospitais da Universidade College London do NHS (UCLH); we also work in partnership with our other network founders Escola de Medicina Tropical de Liverpool (LSTM), London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) and the Hospital de Doenças Tropicais (HTD). The network partners and Department of Health provide strategic guidance to NaTHNaC through representation on a Technical Advisory Group which meets quarterly.
