Learn about the important medical equipment you can find inside ambulances, explained in a fun and simple way for young children.
Ambulances are special cars that help people who are not feeling well or are hurt. Inside these cars, there are important tools and equipment to help doctors and nurses take care of people.
The stretcher is like a bed. When someone is very sick or hurt, they can lie down on the stretcher so that the doctors can help them.
This kit is full of necessary supplies like bandages, scissors, and special creams. It helps the doctors fix small cuts or scrapes quickly.
Sometimes, people have trouble breathing. The oxygen mask gives them fresh air to help them breathe better. It looks like a little cup that goes over your nose and mouth.
The heart monitor tells the doctors how the heart is working. It has wires that connect to little stickers on the skin of the person. It shows a picture on a screen.
Ambulances carry different kinds of medicine that can help make people feel better. The doctors know which ones to use.
Ambulances have bright lights and loud sounds called sirens. They help other cars and people know that the ambulance is on its way to help someone!
There are also some special tools that doctors and nurses use, like small flashlights to check your throat or things to help them listen to your heart.
So, when you see an ambulance, remember it is full of amazing tools that help take care of people. And the wonderful doctors and nurses are there to help too!
