Bedside Manner Beginner (Back Edition)

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.
