Health care: There is a reciprocal health agreement with the UK. On presenting proof of UK residence (driving licence, NHS card, etc), free in- and out-patient treatment is available at the General Hospital, Gloucester Street, St Helier (tel: (01534) 622 000) and at Morning Medical Centre, Woodville Avenue, St Helier (tel: (01534) 616 833). The agreement does not cover the costs of medical treatment at a doctor’s surgery (but there is a free GP-style surgery most mornings in Newgate Street, St Helier), prescribed medicines, or dental treatment, but travel by ambulance is free. 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.
