Annotation
The course is aimed to prepare students directly for the doctor-patient communication which they will perform in the hospital. The initial topic corresponds to the students´ needs to communicate with patients during their summer holiday medical practice in the hospitals (patient care communication). Following topics are based on the main general medicine specializations (pneumology, cardiology, gastroenterology, urology, gynecology and obstetrics, endocrinology, ENT, dermatology, traumatology, orthopedics and physiotherapy, neurology and psychiatry).
The course focuses especially on listening skills (in the form of doctor-patient dialogues) and speaking (obtaining required information). The core of the course is a professional vocabulary acquisition aimed at general medicine.
