Book Description
"This handbook is intended for use to support a one-day workshop in medical terminology for interpreters or as a self study tool for interpreters. It can be used by any interpreters in healthcare but will be of most use to Spanish interpreters because many of the activity answer keys also include Spanish translations. However, due to the shortage of self study resources available for medical terminology, those who interpret for languages other than Spanish may find this handbook helpful."--P. 4.
