AIMS AND CONTENT

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

 

In today's globalized world, the health professional has often the need to communicate in English with patients and colleagues. The aim of this course is not that of teaching how to read a medical text, but to help to practice medicine in English, possibly in a human context different from the one we are familiar with.

To acquire the writing skills in technical English that are needed to draft a scientific text.   To communicate in English with patients and colleagues, and overcome cultural barriers, in order to practice medicine in a foreign environment. The program is carried out over three years from English 1 (improving the student’s knowledge of English to B2 level) to English 2-3-4 (Scientific and Medical English). 

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

The students enter a virtual hospital, meet the staff, get to know the individual operating units and learn the structure of healthcare systems in Anglo-Saxon countries. Typical situations of dialogue with the most frequent English expressions relating to health are presented in specific medical areas, giving preference to non-technical but commonly used ones that the patient can use. For all these scenarios, the differences that are important to know between the Anglo-Saxon interpersonal approach and the Italian one are underlined to allow you to establish a relationship of trust and better communication with the patient.
