Since 1978, Italy has had its own national health service (the SSN or Servizio Sanitario Nazionale), similar to the British NHS, and based on the principle of ‘universal entitlement’, with the State providing free and equal access to preventive medical care and rehabilitation services to all residents.
If you need A&E or ER, head for the local hospital and its Pronto Soccorso department. Emergency phone numbers are as follows: 112 for the Carabinieri, 113 for general emergencies (ask for ospedale or ambulanza), 115 for the fire service, 116 for roadside assistance and 118 for an ambulance.
Alternative therapies are also very popular in Italy, and whether you require Rolfing, acupressure, aroma or colour therapy, or any of a thousand other treatments, the Yellow Pages (Pagine Gialle) is the place to look.
