1. A hospital equipment system comprising a head wall of a room,a blanket,a thermoregulation unit housed in the head wall, andat least one hose coupled to the blanket and coupled to the thermoregulation unit, a medium being moved between the blanket and the thermoregulation unit through the at least one hose, the medium being one of cool liquid, cool air, heated liquid, and heated air, anda hospital bed spaced from the head wall, the bed including a pendant controller that a patient uses while lying in bed to control the thermoregulation unit in a desired manner when the pendant controller is not locked out, wherein the pendant controller also is used to control other bed functions, the thermoregulation unit also being controllable by a computer located remotely from said room in which the head wall, the blanket, the thermoregulation unit, and the hospital bed are situated. 2. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the blanket comprises a disposable heating/cooling blanket. 3. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the at least one hose comprises a pair of heating/cooling hoses and the thermoregulation unit comprises a heating/cooling unit. 4. The set of hospital equipment of claim 3, wherein the medium comprises a cooling medium and when the patient is to be cooled, the heating/cooling unit operates to provide the cooling medium through a first heating/cooling hose of the pair of heating/cooling hoses to the blanket and a second heating/cooling hose of the pair of heating/cooling hoses provides the cooling medium back to heating/cooling unit after circulation of the cooling medium through blanket. 5. The set of hospital equipment of claim 3, wherein the medium comprises a heating medium and when the patient is to be heated, the heating/cooling unit operates to provide the heating medium through a first heating/cooling hose of the pair of heating/cooling hoses to the blanket and a second heating/cooling hose of the pair of heating/cooling hoses provides the heating medium back to heating/cooling unit after circulation of the cooling medium through blanket. 6. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the medium comprises heated air circulated through the blanket and wherein perforations are formed in a surface of the blanket facing the patient so that a portion of the heated air being circulated through the blanket is able to escape from the blanket through the perforations and convectively heat the patient. 7. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the medium comprises cooled air circulated through the blanket and wherein perforations are formed in a surface of the blanket facing the patient so that a portion of the cooled air being circulated through the blanket is able to escape from the blanket through the perforations and convectively cool the patient. 8. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the other bed functions comprise at least one of articulation, raising, and lowering of a deck of the bed. 9. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the other bed functions comprise at least one of control of a room entertainment function and control of a communication function. 10. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the other bed functions comprise at least one of control of a television, control of a radio, and placing a nurse call. 11. The set of hospital equipment of claim 1, wherein the thermoregulation unit is operable to selectively move each of cool liquid, cool air, heated liquid, and heated air between the blanket and the thermoregulation unit through the hose. 12.
