Professional healthcare for international workers
Looking after your UK and travelling staff
InterHealth provides a range of medical, psychological and occupational health services to charities, not-for-profit organisations and governmental organisations making a difference in the UK. Our clients range in size and work in many different areas, from borough councils to central government agencies, cancer and disability charities, to environmental groups and housing associations.
The public sector experiences many unique issues relating to the health of their staff. Our holistic approach and unique experience in the sector enables us to work closely with government organisations to ensure they fulfil their duty of care towards their staff, meet current employment legislation, maximise productivity and ensure that costs related to ill-health are minimised.
As a specialist travel health charity, we provide travel health services to individuals travelling internationally with government. These individuals travel to a variety of different countries and environments, undertaking a range of work, from short term visits for policy meetings to longer term development, humanitarian aid or research assignments.
Our travel health services are designed to support the traveller before, during and after travel. They include:
- Pre-departure preparation for travelling staff
- Remote support for all travelling staff
- Post-travel services
- Frequent Travellers

First Aid Courses in partnership with The British Red Cross
Testimonial
"The First Aid course was excellent and beyond my expectations in terms of content, presentation and opportunities to interact with what was being taught. It provided not only a first aid refresher but some hugely useful ideas for overseas work which I've never come across in regular first aid courses in the UK."
