Want to practice your medical Spanish? Tuesday, March 27th at 12:30
Join us for our March Spanish lunch meet-up where we will learn and practice Spanish for physical exams and clinical encounters.
This month we are changing things up a bit!
As we spend more time in clinical settings with Spanish-speaking patients, many of us have wished we could brush up on our medical Spanish or learn the basic phrases that might help us get through the visit a little more smoothly.
Dr. Joanne Wilkinson will go over basic, high yield words and phrases for us from her years of experience as a family medicine physician to mostly Spanish-speaking patients here at BMC.
If you are a native speaker, we would love to have your additional expertise so we can learn and practice different ways to elicit and receive information from our patients. And if you’re pretty good at Spanish but aren’t so confident with your medical Spanish, this is the session for you! While all levels are welcome, this session will be most helpful to those with a basic level of comfort in speaking Spanish.
Other faculty will also be invited and will join if their schedules allow. In addition to practicing your Spanish, we hope this will be a fun way to get to meet other classmates and faculty at the BU School of Medicine and the School of Public Health.
Bring your lunch and join us!
Date: Tuesday, March 27
Time: 12:30-1:30pm
Location: TBD
