After pre‐existing illnesses, accidents and injury contribute greatly to the morbidity and mortality of travellers worldwide. Most accidents involve road trauma and drowning. Travel health advisers need to undertake an individual risk assessment of travellers' activities abroad and provide appropriate pre‐travel safety and security advice and develop contingency plans, in particular advising on important safety nets, such as travel insurance with an emergency assistance service. Those travellers with serious illness and injury may need specialised medical evacuation services, which may involve an air ambulance and a specialised medical team.
