No one ever wants to think they might fall ill or break a bone while traveling. Travel is a time meant to be cherished, enjoyed and free of injuries. However, as the possibility of trauma is ever-present in life, it’s important to be prepared with a few of these travel apps in the case of a medical emergency.
iTriage
This free app is not only a mini medical dictionary that clues you into symptoms of common ailments, but it also acts as your medical concierge. Find a list of the closest hospitals, learn the approximate emergency room wait times and even make appointments with physicians from the app. iTriage also stores your emergency contact info as well as a list of your current medications.
TravelSmart
This free app uses GPS technology to learn where you are located and point you in the direction of the nearest medical facilities, but not just any medical facility. The suggested hospitals come directly from Allianz Global Assistance. On holiday in a non-English-speaking country? The app also provides a medical terms translator.
In Case of Emergency (ICE)
As electronic medical records become commonplace, they are now available and accessible on your mobile device with this app. Store your allergy information, immunization history, medications and physician contact details in this all-encompassing app.
