What to Pack

Remicade Day
1. Face masks, hand sanitizer, tissues, hair ties.
2. Phone charger
3. Contact solution
4. Head phones
5. Coloring book and colored pencils
6. Slippers
7. Shawl
8. Neck pillow
9. Crackers
10. Water bottle
11. Phone/ Tablet

For my treatments I have to go to my hospital to recive IV infusions of remicade.
My hospital has very nice reclining chairs and a lot of pillows and warm blankets. They also provide food, soups and crackers and drinks. They also had a basic chair for a guest to sit.
I put together a hospital bag for when I go so it is easy for me to grab and go every eight weeks everything stays in my bag until the next treatment.
I would also suggest wearing comfortable clothing, the first couple treatments last about 3 hours long. I also do not really need the neck pillow or shawl but the hospital suggested it because sometimes they do not have enough pillow and blankets.
