description: Spanish for Health Professionals.- This great CD-ROM and book combination is for English-speaking health professionals with the need and desire to communicate with their patients who primarily speak Spanish. It works just as well in the other direction for helping Spanish-speaking health professionals understand what their English-speaking clients are trying to communicate. Spanish for Health Professionals is designed for busy Doctors, Dentists, Nurses, Psychologists, and Social Workers-and their support and office staff. It uses simple exercises and dialog situations to create a language laboratory where you learn the specific phrases and questions you need to help your patients. Spanish for Health Professionals contains hundreds of typical questions that can be answered "yes" or "no" by the client. It makes these questions and phrases easy to access and easy to learn. Just choose the general health areas you typically work in, listen and vocalize. The CD - Main Program The main program is divided into 18 chapters, including subjects such Mental Health, Communications for the Receptionist, Emergencies, Men's Issues, Women's Issues, the Dentist, and Sexuality &amp; Contraception. Each chapter contains many key phrases that help meet patient needs associated with that chapter's topic. Listen to the audio accompanied by images. You can choose to watch and hear either the Spanish or the English first. Choose to hear Spanish only, English only, or both. Practice over and over with the CD-ROM in the privacy of your home or office until you feel comfortable with your newly learned expressions. A Vocabulary section contains individual pronunciations of hundreds of medical words. The Book - A Ready Reference The book that accompanies this CD-ROM is a huge bonus. It's well-organized for quick reference when you're away from the computer. In addition, there is an English-to-Spanish and Spanish-to-English dictionary that contains healthcare words and expressions. It provides healthcare givers and office staff new levels of communication when attending to Spanish- or English-speaking clients. Speaking key phrases in a patient's native tongue shows them you care and can lead to faster, more thorough treatment.
