This is the other wings of the pediatric ward. The first room is the malnourished kids room. These are the very severely malnourished children and often the room can't hold all the kids. The rest of them will get put in the TB wing or the main wing. The next room is the TB room. This is usually the stable tuberculosis children. The really sick ones are in the main room. Yes, they only isolate TB patients once they're stable. Scary, I know. (My ppd will definitely be positive). The next room is the burns room. The burns are half accidents, half child abuse. And that is pediatrics, where I spent almost 6 weeks of my life!
