There are many classes of antibiotics and they have different effects on bacteria. Some antibiotics weaken the cell walls. Some antibiotics block protein or DNA synthesis. Antibiotics can kill bacteria or stop them from growing. Each antibiotic has specific characteristics and they don’t work against all types of bacteria. It is important that patients know several things about antibiotics: Antibiotics don’t work against viral infections such as colds and the flu. Antibiotics don’t work against sore throat and coughs which are generally caused by viruses. It is important to finish all of the medication with antibiotics even if you feel better. If a patient doesn’t finish the prescription, it can be dangerous. Patients usually will feel better after 2 – 3 days. However, the bacteria might not be completely gone. If a patient stops taking his medication, the bacteria may grow, causing the patient to become sick again. Also, the bacteria may become resistant to the antibiotic making it more difficult to fight them. Problems can occur with antibiotics. If the patient notices a rash, swelling, or any other allergic reaction, he should stop taking the medication and contact his physician immediately. Also, if the patient has problems with nausea or vomiting, he should stop the medication and contact his physician. A more tolerable alternative might be available. Now find in the text and reproduce the information answering the questions: 1. What do antibiotics do in the body? 2. What ways do antibiotics fight bacteria? 3.

HOSPITAL A hospital in Britain or the United States consists of inpatient wards and ambulatory or outpatient care services. When an outpatient consultation is needed the patient comes to the ambulatory or outpatient clinic. If a patient is getting admitted to the inpatient ward s/he can stay in the hospital for several days or weeks of treatment. Some larger hospitals also have Accident and Emergency Departments (A&E - Br.) or an Emergency Room ( EMS4 - US). A patient who is getting admitted is first taken to the triage area (US), or admission department, or reception ward (Br.) where nurses take care of all the necessary procedures. They note general information about the patient: his/her name, age, job title, past medical history and the initial diagnosis made by the referring physician, in the patient’s medical record (case history). Other nurses take note of the patient’s vital signs, help him/her change into a gown and draw blood for any urgent tests. The admitting physician examines the patient, comes up with an assessment of his/her condition and plan of treatment, identifies the urgency of the case and starts appropriate therapy if necessary, for emergency cases brought by ambulance. S/he also decides which medical service (hospital unit) the patient needs to be admitted to. The day starts early in the hospital. Nurses take patients’ vital signs, take urine and gastric (digestive) juices samples, administer medications (pills and other oral drugs). They also give patients injections and IV (intravenous) infusions, perform wound care (including changing wound dressings after surgery) and other procedures as prescribed by doctors. Dayshift and nightshift nurses are always within reach to assist a patient or call a doctor. Doctors see their patients during daily morning ward rounds. They listen to patients’ complaints, examine them and follow up on their progress.. Later they discuss their patients at a conference. Doctors can prescribe a special diet or order a diagnostic investigation test, such as CT (computer tomography), MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), X-ray, ultrasound scan, ECG (electrocardiogram). When the time comes, the doctor fixes the date of the patient’s discharge.
