A visit to the ER.(emergency room)

Current Health 2, a Weekly Reader publication | January 1, 1996| | Copyright

On a Sunday evening, 14-year-old John DeTone was in-line skating with friends on his driveway when he tripped and fell on his arm. Half an hour later, his wrist started hurting. John's dad phoned the emergency room (ER), and a nurse advised him to bring his son in. John, a fan of TV shows like "ER" and "Rescue" 911," was a little nervous about going to the ER. "I wasn't worried about my wrist--it was either broken, sprained, or just sore--but I was scared about what I might see at the hospital, like people who were bleeding or all banged up."
