Step 1 - Listening

Day in the life of a registered nurse

You are going to watch a video about a nurse’s workday.  

  • Watch the video and do exercise 1.
  • Do exercise 2.

Step 2 - Reading

Hospital rules

You are going to read a text about hospital rules.

  • Work together with three or four classmates.
  • Read a text and do exercise 1 and 2.

Hospital house rules

Our hospital wants to provide a pleasant and safe environment for its patients, visitors and staff. That’s why we have drawn up some house rules.

Smoking
Smoking is prohibited in this hospital. The only area in which smoking is permitted is in the smoking area opposite the mortuary on the ground floor and on De Orangerie terrace under the smoke umbrella and under the smoke umbrella outside at the front of the hospital, 30 metres to the left of the main entrance as you leave the building.

Use of mobile phone
In the hospital you can use your mobile phone, including the internet, but not everywhere in the building. Loud ring tones and alarms could be confused with alarms on medical equipment, and as mobile phones emit electromagnetic signals, they could also interfere with medical devices. Areas where mobile phones and tablets cannot be used are clearly marked. Ask a member of staff at the hospital if you are unsure where you can use your mobile phone.

Visitors
In order to ensure the patients rest as much as possible, generally no more than two visitors per patient are allowed at one time. We expect everyone to behave with respect. Animals are not permitted inside the building. Cats, dogs and other animals can carry infectious diseases that can be a risk to the patients.

Shaking hands
When you enter our hospital or meet with our doctors and nurses we will great you with a smile. Shaking hands transmits micro-organisms like viruses. So, we don’t shake hands anymore and ask you do the same. The Covid-19 pandemic has shown us that this can be a risk for everyone’s health. By not shaking your hand we give viruses less chance to spread.  

Noise
When visiting your loved ones in our hospital, please keep your voice down. A lot of patients share a room, so be respectful to the needs and privacy of the other patients. Even if your friend or family member has a room of their own, it is still important to keep the noise level to a minimum.  
If the friend of family member you are visiting is well enough to do so, you can meet them in the friends and family room on their floor. Here you don’t have to mind your volume. There are also board games and puzzles available to pass the time and have some fun.    

 

Step 3 - Vocabulary

  • Study the vocabulary. (10 minutes)
  • Do the exercise.

Woordenlijst The hospital

Step 4 - Grammar

In Dutch we have one word to talk about a large amount (veel) and one word to talk about small amounts (weinig). Last school year you learnt about the English translation of ‘veel’: much and many. Do you remember how to use these words? Which one you use depends on the word that comes next.

  • He has much money.
  • I have many books.

The same is true for the English translation of ‘weinig’: little and few.

  • He has little money.
  • I have few books.


Study the explanation of much, many, little and few in the Kennisbank.


This about this question: When do you use little and when do you use few?
