Publisher's Synopsis
Cambridge English for Nursing is designed to improve the communication skills and specialist English language knowledge of healthcare professionals, enabling them to work more confidently and effectively. With an emphasis on listening and speaking, the course covers core areas of nursing such as patient admission, taking medical specimens, patient handover and post-operation assessment. Authentic tasks and activities based on everyday nursing scenarios - from dealing with patients in pain to discussing lifestyle changes - make the course relevant and motivating. Online activities that focus on the latest advances in nursing technology are also available, helping keep nurses up-to-date and confident when faced with unfamiliar equipment in new environments. This edition also includes a Polish glossary to assist learners' comprehension. This course requires no specialist teacher knowledge, as comprehensive teacher's notes are available online. The course is also ideal self-study for healthcare professionals without the time to attend a teacher-led programme.
