Health Care
There is a reciprocal health agreement with the UK. There is the General Hospital, Gloucester Street and the Morning Medical Centre, Woodville Avenue, both in St Helier. There is a free GP-style surgery most mornings in Newgate Street, St Helier). Despite the agreement, private medical insurance is advised for UK residents on long visits in case emergency repatriation is necessary and to cover the cost of prescribed medicines and dental treatment. All visitors should bring the name and address of their family doctor in case of a serious accident or illness.
