Reading and Vocabulary

A big hospital is like a small town; it needs thousands of people to make it work. All
these people are organized into teams and each person in each team has a rank and often a
specialism. In the past, the health care team’s chain of command was simple: doctors made
decisions and gave senior nurses orders. Senior nurses then instructed junior nurses, and so
on. Things are changing. In many countries nurses have much more responsibility than they
once had.
One thing is not changing; it is still a doctor who is in charge of a patient’s treatment.
In Britain, that doctor is called a consultant. Next in line to the consultant is the registrar.
Consultants and registrars train the junior doctors who are called house officers or interns.
Junior doctors work the same long, unsocial hours that nurses do on the wards. The most
senior nurses are nursing officers; they are administrators. Then come ward managers who
supervise staff nurses and students.
It is not only doctors and nurses who deliver treatment and care; there are many
other specialists too. For example, there are physiotherapists who specialize in exercises to
treat injury or dysfunction and occupational therapists who help patients manage every-day
living. There are also many people the patient does not meet like lab technicians doing the
tests and pharmacists dispensing medicines.
Like any town, a hospital has teams of office staff and ancillary workers such as
porters, orderlies, technicians, drivers, cleaners, receptionists and cooks. Every team is

6
essential for the delivery of treatment and care. This includes the volunteers who, without
pay, raise money for the hospital and run shops, cinemas, libraries and restaurants.

Writing

Example of Personal Profile

When I was a child I wanted to be an accountant because mathematics was my favourite
subject at school. I was no good at science and not very good with people, so I thought
that nursing was not for me. But when I was sixteen my grandmother got very ill. I
watched the nurses care for her as she slowly died, and I realized that I wanted to be like
them.

When I left school I applied to train as a nurse. A training college accepted me and I
started the course two years ago. I am still training and getting experience. I know that
nursing is not right for everyone, but personally I love it.

For the past two months I have been working in a children’s ward. It’s a wonderful
experience and I’m going to specialize in paediatrics as soon as I can. I’m ambitious and I
want to go as high in my chosen career as possible

Reading and Vocabulary

Some hospitals specialize in particular conditions like cancer or psychiatric illness.
Other hospitals specialize in particular types of patients like geriatrics, children or the
terminally ill. However, the best known type of hospital is the general hospital which deals
with almost everything, has ambulance crews and beds for both intensive care and long stay.
A big general hospital has many different specialist departments. Identifying
departments can be confusing because different hospitals use different names for the same
thing. For example, one hospital may have a ‘children’s unit’ which a different hospital calls
‘Paediatrics’. ‘Accident and Emergency’ (A&E) in one hospital is called ‘Casualty’ in another.
There are many other examples. The department that specializes in heart problems, is
sometimes called ‘Coronary Care’. Others call it ‘Cardiology’ or ‘Cardiovascular medicine’.
Nephrology, the department that treats illnesses of the kidney is sometimes called ‘the Renal
Unit’. Gastroenterology (digestive system) is sometimes ‘the Department of Hepatology’.
Hospital staff often use abbreviations for departments. For example, they refer to ‘Obs
and Gynae’. This is a department combining Obstetrics (pregnancy), and Gynaecology
(women’s reproductive organs). They call Otolaryngology, ‘ENT’ (ears, nose & throat), mostly
because it is much easier to say.
