Due Diligence For Wellness: Premium Medicare Service and Collins Buka Raise the Bar for Food Hygiene

This past weekend, the team at Premium Medicare Service made their way to Collins Buka for a brilliant reason.  Wellness as a watchword for collaborating or becoming partners is a step toward protecting lives, building trust, and ensuring healthier communities.

The WHO's Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) recommends that professional food handlers be vaccinated against typhoid. Meaning typhoid vaccination is considered important, especially because food handlers are considered a high-risk group.

As a popular food brand, Collins Buka understood how far their commitment to customers had to go beyond delicious meals. It had to begin with vaccinating and educating the people handling the food.

Premium Medicare Service showed up, not just as medical professionals, but as partners in their journey. Our team carried out comprehensive food handlers’ medicals and fitness-to-work screenings, ensuring every staff member was ready and certified to serve safely. 

• Food Handlers’ Medicals & Fitness-to-Work Screening – comprehensive checks to certify staff as fit to serve and cook.

• Vaccinations – although Typhoid and Hepatitis A are ideally recommended for food handlers, the staff at Collins Buka opted for Typhoid and Hepatitis B vaccinations, with Hepatitis A vaccination as part of future plans. Follow-up has been planned to ensure adequate protection.

• Health Talk & Training – we delivered an enlightening session on food hygiene, product testing, safe kitchen practices, and the critical role of vaccinations in safeguarding both staff and customers.

 This wasn’t just another task completed. It was DUE DILIGENCE—wellness in action. It was a reminder that every plate served at Collins Buka is backed by care, safety, and a commitment to health.

At Premium Medicare Service, this is what we stand for. Partner by partner, brand by brand, we’re ensuring that wellness becomes the foundation of service.
