Hospitals are places that people go when they are ill, injured, or need medical care for any reason. If you have appendicitis then you will need to go to the hospital to have surgery so that your appendix can be removed, and you will usually need to stay in the hospital while you recover. It is important to remember that a hospital is not a place for social gatherings, people in these places need to recover so that they can get better and return to good health.
