What is healthcare in Slovenia like?

Facilities and Health Information

Adequate medical care is readily available. Travelers to Slovenia may obtain a list of English-speaking physicians on the U.S. Embassy’s website. Antibiotics, as well as other U.S.-equivalent prescription medications are available at local pharmacies. In Slovenia all medications, including drugs considered over-the-counter and first aid supplies, are dispensed through pharmacies (called “lekarna”). Please see the Embassy’s website for a list of pharmacies open 24 hours.

Persons who engage in outdoor activities may wish to take a vaccine to prevent tick-borne encephalitis.

Disability Access In Slovenia

Accessibility

While in Slovenia, individuals with disabilities may find accessibility and accommodation very different from what you find in the United States. The Slovenian government has implemented laws and programs to ensure that persons with disabilities have access to buildings, information, and communications. In practice, however, modification of public and private structures to improve access is proceeding at a slow pace, and many buildings are not easily accessible. Most tourist destinations around Slovenia are accessible by those with disabilities.
