Not much for a US hospital. Wear the hospital gown, better with drains and wounds and such. They give you slipper sock, toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, lotion and a comb. I only needed a Robe (cold in the hospital) hairbrush and granny panties. You wear what you came in with at discharge. Bring your cell and charger, a tablet, if you have one, charger too. Heating pad optional (i didn't use mine)
