Italy Health & Safety

Top end Italian hospitals attract the majority of medical patients to Italy, and they have impeccable cleanliness and sanitation standards. Some of the public hospitals are lacking in these areas, but most foreigners will not have to deal with these conditions. There are few health concerns to worry about in Italy.

Safety in Italy is generally not a concern. It is considered a safe country to travel in, but visitors should take precautions, as when in any part of the world, to ensure the safety of their valuables and belongings. There have been some warnings from the Italian government that the risk of terrorist attacks has increased and the government is taking measures to ensure public safety.
