Language:English
Summary:This session will provide information and terminology at a SURGICAL NURSING level, i.e., used by nurses assisting physicians in the Operating Room. It will also touch on some terminology of EBOLA, as this might be a topic of high interest in the current healthcare environment. It is suitable for translators and interpreters already working in the field, who want to expand their vocabulary and understanding of complex concepts. (The session is language-neutral delivered in English but appropriate for any language pair.)
Description
This 90 minute session covers about 100 terms at a surgical nursing level, i.e., nurses assisting surgeon in the operating room. It also covers some of the terms used in relation to the EBOLA outbreak, as we consider they are of the outmost importance in today's healthcare environment.

This is a fast-pace, intense, session with an upbeat and lively mood, that requires full engagement on the part of the participant in terms of ACTIVE listening, individual thinking and processing of information, as well as hands-on note-taking and interactive activities. HANDS-ON exercises will also be suggested to be completed AFTER the session and study materials will be provided PRIOR to the session.

This is one more session that forms part of the bundles focusing on the progressive acquisition of skills in terminology used in healthcare and medicine, legal settings and finance and business, and tips on how to build better glossaries.
