NEWPORT — It’s been a busy week at the hospital, as visiting kindergartners and first graders have been getting their favorite stuffed animals weighed and immunized at the Teddy Bear Clinic.
Nearly 400 students from 15 schools in the two local supervisory unions marched proudly with their buddies into North Country Hospital.
Multiple stations provided education and care, including the emergency department and the ambulance bay.
Students learned about summertime safety and the mechanics of the skeleton.
This year, thanks to Glover and Newport EMT services, visiting students even saw firsthand the operation of an ambulance.
