A question to send your hotel
Send this before you travel and keep the reply on your phone.
Hello, we are travelling with a child aged [age] from [date] to [date]. Could you tell us the nearest pharmacy and clinic, whether a doctor can be called to the hotel, and how a taxi can be arranged at night? Could you also send the address in Khmer so we can show a driver? Thank you.
A small kit and health notes
Kit to pack
- Insect repellent with DEET or picaridin: CDC recommends these active ingredients, and WHO advises clothes that cover as much skin as possible.
- A thermometer and any regular medicine from home. CDC warns that medicine in some countries may be substandard or counterfeit.
- Insurance details and a copy of your child's vaccination record.
- A card with your child's allergies: a Wendy Wu Tours guide advises carrying a personalised translated card, and not relying on a guide to communicate allergies for you.
CDC advises travellers to be up to date on routine vaccines, and it lists no or negligible malaria transmission in the cities of Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. Dengue is a year-round risk, so prevent mosquito bites, and WHO states the mosquitoes that spread dengue are active during the day. CDC also notes that rabid dogs are commonly found in Cambodia, so keep children away from stray dogs.
When to call the hotel and when to go straight to a clinic
For a minor issue, such as a mild fever or a scratch, call the front desk first, because the team can recommend a pharmacy or call a doctor. For a serious injury or a high-risk situation, go straight to a hospital or dial 119. For baby needs at the hotel, see how to request a cot.
