Bedside Manner Beginner
by Simon Capper
Bedside Manner Beginner is a
practical, basic introduction to everyday nursing
English. It helps learners to acquire the vital
communicative essentials of their jobs, without
demanding a high level of English.
Bedside Manner Beginner avoids
using specialised nursing and medical expressions,
preferring to equip learners with the kind of
language spoken and understood by patients.
In a step-by-step approach, with extensive
scaffolding and review, learners can build the basic
skills that they need to help them avoid potentially
stressful communication with English-speaking
patients. It also offers abundant Japanese language
support, and a variety of extra activities and
downloadable audio from the Perceptia Press website.
Bedside Manner Beginner has been graded to
Level 6 (mid-elementary, at a level of around
401-600 headwords) according to the levels in the
Extensive Reading Foundation (ERF) Level Scale.
