Pages : 637
Book Description
Offering a practical, case-based approach, Spanish and the Medical Interview: Clinical Cases and Exam Review is a unique, immersive study and review resource for medical Spanish. It provides extensive training and review in two formats: the print book contains numerous cases spanning a wide variety of clinical settings, formatted as a patient would present for medical attention, while the audio cases provide multiple opportunities to hone your listening comprehension skills. Together, these learning components test your knowledge and skills in caring for Spanish-speaking patients and prepare you for case-based examinations that test clinical skills in Spanish. This first-of-its-kind title is ideal as a stand-alone resource or as a companion to Dr. Ortega's Spanish and the Medical Interview: A Textbook for Clinically Relevant Medical Spanish. - Helps you improve your interviewing skills, your understanding of patient responses, and your ability to explain a diagnosis and plan of care to Spanish-speaking patients, so you can provide a higher quality of patient care and safety in your practice. - Covers multiple presentations of cases in main organ system areas, including musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, genitourinary, neurologic, psychiatric, eye/ear/nose/throat, and pediatric, in multiple patient care settings such as urgent care, emergency department, outpatient clinic, and inpatient wards. · - Focuses on topics that are particularly common in Hispanic/Latino patients and includes cultural health issues that may impact the patient's understanding of medical information, belief system, decision-making preferences, or access to care—all of which have a significant impact on your medical decision making and interviewing styles and effectiveness. - Leads you through key information for each case, prompting you to use your medical Spanish clinical skills in a series of prompts and questions as the case unfolds. Assessment questions follow each case to test your comprehension. - Provides more than two dozen audio cases to improve your listening comprehension of different nationalities and accents of Spanish-speaking patients. - Provides real-world content from Drs. Pilar Ortega and Marco Alemán, who serve on the steering committee for the National Medical Spanish Taskforce that aims to standardize the educational approach to a national assessment examination for Medical Spanish. - Expands your global skills set: in your home country, when caring for patients who speak Spanish, or when caring for patients in other countries through global medicine programs. - Evolve Instructor site with an image and test bank is available to instructors through their Elsevier sales rep or via request at https://evolve.elsevier.com.

Educando el ser humano, siendo una humilde maestra de educacin elemental y por su espritu de generosidad, Sofa fue cause de transformacin no solo de todos los que pasaron por sus aulas, sino tambin de todos los que los rodeaban, sus padres, sus familias, sus pueblos. Desde su niez enfrentando y viviendo en sociedades machistas, restringidas, conservativas, fue capaz de avanzar y aunque con dificultad algunas veces, -debido a las presiones de las instituciones que guan nuestras sociedades-, logra abrir su mente y aceptar los cambios que por su intrnseca naturaleza se abren al paso del desarrollo humano. Sin embargo, Sofa experimenta la frustracin de todos nuestros pueblos cuando despus de haber logrado realizar un arduo trabajo, en minutos todo puede ser destruido por la violencia que muchas veces crece con nuestra misma naturaleza humana, como crecen la cizaa y la buena yerba.

Reflecting on the concept of frontera madre(hood) as both a methodological and theoretical framework, this collection embodies the challenges and resiliency of mothering along both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border.

Puro Cuento
Author: Enrique Jaimes EscobedoPublisher: Palibrio
ISBN: 1463333145
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 147
Book Description
Son un total de diecisiete cuentos que integran la colección. México, el paso de un país preferentemente agrícola a uno industrial. En ese proceso surgen hechos curiosos, como el viaje a pie, por más de doscientos kilómetros, de quien emigra del campo a la ciudad en busca de su superación personal y en donde vive, en carne propia, una de las leyendas de aparecidos. En el trasfondo del cuento, está un acercamiento a la situación de los profesores en el medio rural, en la época que se dictó la educación socialista. Pero también se intenta un acercamiento a uno de los pueblos de ese tiempo, contando la historia de una pareja en el medio rural y, ya en la segunda mitad del siglo pasado, una aproximación a las vivencias de los médicos que prestan su servicio social en ese medio. En la actualidad, un episodio ficticio de la lucha zapatista. El crecimiento en las ciudades trae consigo episodios de lucha social, cuando la ilusión de la adolescencia arremete con toda su fuerza para cambiar el mundo, pero también de violencia, en donde se impone la ley del más fuerte. La soledad, la necesidad de afecto, el alma humana con sus pasiones se hacen presentes en la narrativa que se presenta.
