My First Day at the Hospital
Below are 20 questions about the hospital environment for Grade 1 learners to enhance your reading ability. Before you answer the questions, read the following passages
When I arrived at the hospital, I was a little scared, but I saw many people there to help. The first person I met was the receptionist, who smiled and asked how she could help me. Then, I saw nurses and doctors walking around, taking care of patients. Nurses help the doctors and take care of people who are sick. They are very kind and wear special clothes called scrubs. I also saw a paramedic who drives the ambulance and brings people to the hospital quickly. In the hospital, there is a place called the pharmacy where people get their medicine. If someone needs an X-ray, they go to a special area called radiology.
Inside the hospital, there are many rooms for different purposes. There is a big room where surgeries happen, called the operating room. Patients who need to stay overnight sleep in the ward. If you have a broken bone, you go to the emergency room. I also saw a janitor cleaning the hospital to keep it nice and clean. When I felt scared, the doctor used a stethoscope to listen to my heartbeat, which made me feel better. There is even a cafeteria where you can buy snacks and drinks. The hospital can be a busy place, but everyone has a job to do, and they all work together to help people feel better. The eye doctor checks your eyes to make sure they are healthy. Babies are born in the maternity ward. If you ever feel sick at the hospital, always tell a nurse or doctor so they can help you right away. You might wear a wristband with your name on it. Remember to be quiet and respectful when visiting someone in the hospital.
