Meet the helpers at the hospital!
The Hospital is where doctors and nurses work to help sick or hurt people get better.
At the hospital, you will find doctors and nurses. Their important job is to help sick or hurt people get better.
A visit to the hospital might be for a check-up, an X-ray, or to meet a new baby brother or sister. Many hospitals have a children's ward with bright colors, toys and play specialists who help kids feel less worried. It helps to bring a favorite toy or book, ask the doctors and nurses questions, and remember that they are there to help you feel better.
