REMEMBER TO TAKE TOWELS. IS THIS CORRECT – AND IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE SPECIAL LIKE THAT THAT I SHOULD TAKE? French hospitals generally expect you to bring your own towel(s), although some do


supply them. You are also expected to bring toiletries. You should also, obviously, pack nightwear (several changes, if necessary, as not all hospitals have a patient laundry service), a


dressing gown and slippers, as well as contact lenses, glasses or hearing aid/s as appropriate. You should avoid bringing in valuables including jewellery. Pack personal documents, such as


your _carte Vitale_ and _mutuelle_ card, _livret de famille_ and passport or identity card. You should also bring any medicines you are taking (along with recent prescriptions relating to


them), X-rays, scans and blood test results connected with your medical condition and your blood group card. Each hospital varies in its services so, if you are unsure, call for advice or


see their website. On arrival, they will also supply a _livret d’accueil _(welcome booklet) with patient information which, in some cases, is also available on the internet. RELATED ARTICLES
