Oral picture: Grandpa in Hospital

Oral Picture : In the Hospital
Introduction Setting

This picture shows a scene at a hospital ward.

Scenario 1 a) – Normal
a) Describe what I see in the picture

Grandpa is lying on the hospital bed with his leg in a cast. A nurse is beside him, checking whether he is recovering well. Grandpa seems to be recovering fast as he nodded his head to the nurse to express that he was alright.

b) Personal Response

I think that the nurse is efficient as not all nurses are willing to ask or check on their patients.

Scenario 1 a) – Wrong and consequence

A boy and a girl are playing catching in the ward. They might be siblings.

b) Personal Response

I feel that they are not respecting their Grandfather in bed. They will also disturb other patients in other wards.

c) Consequence

Their mother, who is sitting on the chair beside Grandpa’s hospital bed, looks very angry. She is fuming mad. She could be going to scold them and tell them about the importance of being respectful to their elder resting on the hospital bed.


Conclusion

When we visit a patient in the hospital, we should not play or make too much noise as to allow the patients to get enough rest.
