Synopsis:
Do you need to prepare for medical interpreter certification? Or interpret for a prenatal or oncology appointment? Are you anxious about which medical terms you need to know? Relax. This workbook has you covered. Terminology Workbook for Medical Interpreters is a unique resource that will help any medical interpreter prepare for medical interpreter certification and interpreting assignments. The book is divided into 24 short chapters based on nearly 20 common medical specializations. Other chapters address terms for pain, medications, anatomy and physiology, medical abbreviations and more. Each chapter provides a quick overview of the specialization followed by a table of critical terms in English that could come up during the appointment. Every table includes a column to write your translation of the terms; a second column allows you to record your comments on usage. These vital terms were selected by the author and another hospital staff interpreter, each with more than 20 years' experience in the field. The workbook is a clear, easy-to- understand resource. Whether you're about to interpret for your first medical history or your twentieth oncology appointment, perform with poise and confidence. Preparation is your superpower!
