Year 2 Trip To Causeway Hospital
23rd November 2018
On Thursday 22nd November, Primary 2 had a very insightful educational trip to the Accident and Emergency Department at the Causeway Hospital, Coleraine. We were guided around by Patricia who was extremely helpful. We visited the A&E department where we got to experience bandages being put on, casts being made and heart rates being taken. The sister of the ward told us lots of information about how the nurses and doctors look after both minor and major patients who have to attend the emergency department.
Another little treat was getting to visit the X-ray department where we met Radiographers. We played a guessing game where we had to guess what the object/body part was that had been x-rayed and displayed on the light screen.
All in all, we had a wonderful trip to the hospital and learned lots of exciting new facts about those who work within that environment and the special job they do each day. A huge note of thanks and appreciation to Patricia from the Causeway Accident and Emergency Department who took the time out of her very busy day to provide us with a meaningful and enlightening experience!
Enjoy the photographs!!
