016 Traveling and Getting Ill

Author: Gabriel Grimes June 12, 2019 Duration: 19:50

In this podcast I discuss how to respond to an illness while being on a trip. 

As an international corporate security manager I had my share of traveler incidents. The good thing was that along with the traveler's insurance we had processes and plans in place to take care of anything that might happen. I've seen sprained ankles, appendicitis, suicides, acute kidney failure, anaphylactic shock and even a shooting victim while I managed three to six thousand travelers all over the world at any given day.

The recent deaths in the Dominican Republic are what the media is focusing on right now but these sort of events happen all over the World, every day. [NEWS LINK] As responsible individuals we need to plan our vacation, business trip, or holiday considering the possibility of a medical emergency in mind. 

This podcast is a must. :)


Gabriel Grimes hosts You're Security, a podcast that digs into the practical realities of personal safety as a component of everyday culture. This isn't about fear-mongering or complex theory; it's about cultivating a calm, observant mindset that integrates seamlessly into your routine. Each episode explores how situational awareness functions in real-world settings, from navigating a crowded transit station to the subtle dynamics within a workplace. You'll hear straightforward discussions on assessing environments, understanding baseline behaviors, and making simple choices that significantly enhance your security posture. The focus is on sustainable habits, not paranoia, offering actionable insights for life at home, during your commute, or while traveling abroad. The goal is to move security from an abstract concept to a tangible, practiced skill. By listening to this podcast, you engage with a continuous conversation about empowerment and preparedness, learning to trust your instincts and proactively shape your own safety. You're Security argues that true security is a personal responsibility, and developing it is a lifelong practice worth your attention.
