Thai
pharmacies
(
raan khai yaa;
daily 8.30am-8pm) are well stocked with local and international branded medicaments. Pharmacists are highly trained and most speak English. All provincial capitals have at least one
hospital
(
rong phayaabahn).
Cleanliness and efficiency vary, but generally hygiene and health-care standards are good; most doctors speak English. In the event of a major health crisis, get someone to contact your embassy
or insurance company - it may be best to get yourself flown home. Other useful information
