It is greatly important that you get conversant with the following information before you embark on your tip to Ghana.
In order to have a stress-free psychosocial mind, it is advised that you carry out the following medical examinations and preparations to guarantee your physical well being:
♦ Yellow fever vaccination
♦ Hepatitis A
♦ Hepatitis B
♦ Typhoid
♦ Malaria medication
We recommend that these examinations and other relevant ones(perhaps not mentioned here) should be conducted by ones medical doctor from a recognized medical institution .Also, you could seek counsel on the kind of test to take and the necessary medications to carry along.
Though Ghana is not extremely prone to malarial infection, we suggest that you equally come with the under listed items for your own use.
♦ Mosquito Net
♦ Anti bacteria hand wipes
Perhaps you have a cause you feel strongly about and I will suggest you put your beliefs into action by volunteering your moment and efforts toward that cause. Some people volunteer formally through a profit, non-profit, or charity organization, while others volunteer informally by helping a sick neighbor or tutoring a friend. People who do volunteer work in Africa get first hand information about the problems facing Africa like poverty, hunger, malnutrition, disease, unemployment and environmental degradation
