EDITORIAL REVIEW

Updated with a new verb list, more vocabulary, more key phrases, and expanded exercise sections, this book-and-cassettes program offers English- speaking doctors, nurses, and medical assistants some basic Spanish vocabulary to help them deal with Hispanic patients who speak little or no English. The book starts with pronunciation tips and offers advice on listening comprehension with special focus on words and phrases that are likely to be used in a medical setting. True-to-life dialogues recreate situations involving pregnancy, broken bones, pediatric care, heart and lung diseases, geriatric care, communicable diseases, drug problems, medical treatment of crime victims, and more. The two 90-minute cassettes recreate the book's dialogues in order to give healthcare personnel some opportunity to practice their speaking skill and improve their listening comprehension in Spanish.

I definitely recommend this book to anyone who's going to be working in heathcare with Spanish-speaking patients. This is a very useful tool. However, I wish it were pocket-sized like the previous version.

Not for those that already have a grasp of the spanish language

I was dissapointed to find that this book had very little medical terminolgy. I already am proficient in the language and just needed some medical terms and vocabulary to help me in my work. I definitely don't recommend this book for those that aren't starting from the very beginning (alphabet, numbers, etc...)

Quick and easy with good quality
