The hospitals do provide warm blankets for the patients and they are a welcome blessing for the rooms are almost always cold. Those who bring their comfort quilts from home usually use them over the heated blankets for the extra warmth and comfort of not only another cover, but one that is made for them with love from family and/or friends.
