This multimedia book is intended for non-French-speaking nursing students and professionals who are required to do a hospital internship or to practice in France or in a French-speaking country. It is also an interesting complement to hospital culture for non-French speaking medical students and professionals. It shows the variety of activities performed by nurses in a hospital environment and outlines the stages of patient care through several examples of care pathways.
Each chapter proposes a professional task, broken down into a multitude of progressive activities and associated with specific communication situations (with the patient, medical staff, family, etc.). Learners are thus immersed in the daily life of the nursing profession, learn to master the interactions that result from it, and gradually become autonomous in terms of language.
All communication skills are covered, both written and oral. A DVD-Rom containing videos shot in the hospital with a medical and paramedical team, audio conversations, photos, authentic documents, answers and transcriptions, is included in the book, which constitutes a complete educational package that the learner can use in a classroom situation or independently
