Once, a tourist refreshed by a bottle of Chianti decided to take a photo of a century by putting his finger in a drinking fountain, it’s good that you say a finger, and indeed, taking two steps with his feet on wet marble, he put his head against the wall and broke the picker in two places.
And since in any incomprehensible situation we have to pull the guide because he must everyone, I had to save a tourist.
Therefore, today there will be useful information for everyone in trouble in Rome. Bookmark and, believe me, such information is never superfluous.
Free tourist treatment points
Important: in Rome, an ambulance comes only for serious cases, this, unfortunately, is a fact, therefore, if you get sick and stabbed in your left heel, run to the ambulance with your feet or in a taxi, it will come out faster. Officially, in Rome there are 2 points of free treatment for tourists:
- Presidio Territoriale di Prossimità "Nuovo Regina Margherita"
Via Emilio Morosini, 30 (Trastevere) - Roma - Poliambulatorio "Canova"
Via Antonio Canova, 19 (Piazza di Spagna) - Roma
They are always open!
In the evening
After 7 pm, you can escape to the Fatebenefratelli hospital on the island of Tiberina (Isola Tiberina), to the left of the main entrance is a night reception center for patients, and usually there are not very many people there.
A very important thing for girls and expectant mothers is that it is convenient and excellent and almost the only emergency gynecological aid in Rome. Therefore, if you are pregnant and plan a trip to Rome, then memorize this address.
Pediatric care
Pediatric care is Ospedale Pediatrico Bambin Gesu, Piazza di Sant'Onofrio, 4, 00165 Roma RM
Around the clock, free and high quality, but sometimes a big queue. Therefore, if a child hits his head, coughs violently or a very high fever, run there.
Tip: do not minimize the symptoms, the waiting time depends on this, but there, if necessary, x-rays and ultrasound and medications. Is free.

Pharmacy Addresses
Of course, the thrifty tourist will get everything you need from the wide legs of a large suitcase, but if something went wrong, you need to run to the pharmacy (Farmacia). As you might have guessed, they don’t like to work in Rome, so pharmacies close at around 19:30 and pharmacies on duty remain, how can I find them?
Usually, on the door of each closed pharmacy, there is a list of establishments closest to you where more hard-working colleagues are sitting, so find the day you need in this list, select a pharmacy and check the map Run Lola Run.
When you get to the door you need, you don’t need to go in from there, it will be closed, and on the side find the window that you need to knock on or call.
And just in case, the list of pharmacies is always open.
