Know Before You Go
Life can throw anything at you, so you must always think ahead.
If you're traveling alone, it would be wise to inform family and friends of your itinerary. Don’t forget to check in with them as often as possible during your vacation.
Listed below are factors you should take into consideration when planning for your Hudson Valley vacation.
First Aid 101
In a life-threatening emergency, the first step should always be a 911 call. If you're not trained in first aid, it's best to wait for first responders or stay on the phone with a 911 operator to see if they can guide you through the basics, depending on how critical the situation is.
For minor injuries such as cuts, some antibiotic ointment and a bandage should do the trick. If you would like to understand some of the fundamentals, you can check out this basic first aid video.
Check Your Environment
Wander Hudson Valley sits perched on a beautiful hilltop overlooking the Catskills and Esopus Creek surrounded by majestic trees. Whilst nature is truly something to behold, you can never be too careful when navigating new terrains.
If you plan on going for hikes and walks nearby, make sure you pack the right gear with you, like a pair of solid hiking boots or a hat. We’ve also highlighted some vetted Wander Hudson Valley hiking/walking trails for your convenience.
Medical History and Other Relevant Records
Self-awareness can save you a lot of time, money, and energy so make sure to practice it, starting with your health. If you're prone to illness or have a chronic condition, please ensure to get your doctor’s pass before traveling, especially if your destination is in a foreign location.
Also make sure to bring any documentation pertaining to your medical history, examples of this include:
Insurance cards: Make sure your coverage is compatible with your destination. You can always purchase travel medical insurance when going abroad.
Proof of vaccinations: Make sure to check the requirements based on your destination.
Doctor's letter
Medical bracelet
Recent blood tests, if applicable
Prescriptions
Medication
To optimize your vacation, it’s important that you're at your best. That said, please don’t forget to take your pills with you. Types of critical medications may include:
Epi-pens: If you have allergies, be mindful of your environment and bring everything you may need with you including foods/snacks that suit your diet.
Insulin
Inhalers
Prescribed medications
Personal First Aid Kit: All our Wander vacation rentals are equipped with a first aid kit, but you can always bring your own.
Pharmacies
Life doesn’t always go according to plan: luggage can get lost at the airport, we tend to be forgetful, and can’t always ensure that we have our belongings with us.
