NATIONAL TRAVEL HEALTH NETWORK AND CENTRE

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 UK Health Security Agency and hosted by University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH); we also work in partnership with our other network founders Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM), London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) and the Hospital for Tropical Diseases (HTD). The network partners and Department of Health provide strategic guidance to NaTHNaC through representation on a Technical Advisory Group which meets quarterly.
