LECCIÓN 1: En la clínica
Description
Para este capítulo introductorio al libro, hemos querido identificar tareas que se corresponden con la realidad de las relaciones interpersonales que se llevan diariamente a cabo entre personal médico y pacientes. Empezamos, por tanto, enfatizando la importancia del comienzo de una buena comunicación entre interlocutores a la hora de comprender y usar formas de saludo y despedida usadas, reconocidas y aceptadas culturalmente al contexto médico para crear una comunidad y ambiente de confianza, respeto y cercanía. Algunos ejemplos del tipo de actividades de práctica en este capítulo son: 1. Efectuar una llamada telefónica para hacer una cita médica, 2. compartir nuestras dolencias y preocupaciones con proveedores de salud, 3. rellenar formularios. Hemos diseñado actividades para que practique en varios modos de comunicación: actividades de comprensión auditiva y lectora a modo de interpretar su contenido, y actividades de presentación oral y escrita y actividades interpersonales al hablar y escribir en español. A continuación, un resumen de objetivos más concretos del capítulo a través de una secuencia estructurada de actividades.
