Hospital Social Stories Resources

WORTH SHARING and SAVING: This is a whole series of social stories with pictures, useful for people with intellectual disability, cognitive disability, children, or those from CALD backgrounds who may not be good at English or simply haven’t experienced hospital visits before.

Each one is about a common hospital event or procedure – like

– getting a blood test
– an x-ray or scan
– going to hospital for an operation

They’re in fairly clear language, but not in Easy English, which is a shame, but they’re a great start, and worth checking out, and worth a share – you never know when you’ll need them!
