GAMBIA PROPERTY SALES · PRACTICAL HELP BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Healthcare planning when moving to The Gambia.
Consider access to care when choosing where to live. Get current travel-health advice from a qualified clinician and check what your insurance covers.
Check current advice before travel
Health guidance and entry-related requirements can change and may depend on your circumstances and travel history. Use current official travel advice and consult your GP, travel clinic or other appropriate clinician in good time.
This property website does not provide a vaccination schedule or prescribe medicines. Individual advice should take account of your health, medication and planned stay.
Assess care as part of the location decision
- Where appropriate routine and urgent care can be obtained.
- Journey times, transport and arrangements if you cannot drive.
- Access to ongoing treatment and prescription medicines.
- The needs of children, older relatives and anyone with limited mobility.
- What the insurer requires and which expenses or evacuation arrangements are covered.
Plan for a longer stay
Discuss continuity of care before relocating. Keep suitable medical records and contact information available, and ask the relevant providers about services you expect to need.
Do not assume that a policy for a short holiday covers residence, work or a long stay. Confirm the terms with the insurer.
