What do you take to the hospital?

I always need dental floss and dental picks. They’re not stock items. Deodorant is also important. Some hospitals have it and others don’t. I also bring reading material and my glasses.

  1. Hi Donna, thanks for sharing what you would pack for the hospital. Reading material is a great idea and maybe a crossword puzzle. All the best to you, Lauren (Team member)

    1. What about a phone charger? That is always top of my list! Morgan (heart-failure.net Moderator)

      1. I take a pen and paper, charger, phone, glasses, photos of my kids as toddlers. My own toiletries.

        1. Thanks for sharing, Susan. I'm always careful to travel with my skincare especially as the hospital can be so dry. All the best, Lauren (Team member)

        2. Paper and pen is always a great idea. I try to remember to bring a notebook to keep all of my medication changes and doctors names together in one spot. All the best, Lauren (team member)
