Also, think of that mattress you're putting your linen on... people have soiled that bed with every body fluid you can imagine. Bring your own toiletries... socks, toothbrushes, toothpaste, feminine hygiene products, soaps... some hospitals DO charge for those.

To contribute on this post, my job is in Healthcare Materials Management, so I know what we charge for and what we don't. Most hospitals do not charge extra for linens, hospital clothing, pillows, and even toiletries. That is all considered part of the "room charge". In fact, for possible infection containment reasons, it would be wise not to bring your own linens. Bob,
