There is a hospital in The Bottom and the University School of Medicine. There is also a hyperbaric chamber on the island for divers. The hospital does not treat complex cases so medical insurance is essential.
All mains water on the island is distilled from seawater and is therefore safe to drink. Bottled mineral water is widely available. Milk is pasteurised and dairy products are safe for consumption. Local meat, poultry, seafood, fruit and vegetables are generally considered safe to eat but travellers should beware of certain reef fish including barracuda, grouper, and red snapper, as they may carry ciguatera biotoxin.
