To pick up in your point Simon, I totally agree it's important to have an understanding of the persons language, as language can have many nuances. In my job it is also important to have an understanding of their cultural background and beliefs, as behaviour can be normal for one culture, yet seem abnormal in others. It's also important to be able to communicate across a wide multidisciplinary team. Language does often seem an underestimated art. Many thanks again.

Once again its cultural.<BR/><BR/>As a result I travel quite a distance to see my GP, as well as my oncologist.<BR/><BR/>BTW my GP has a great caring manner. :o)<BR/>My specialist deals with the problem (and not the person).<BR/><BR/>So, for me its cultural, ie I identify better with "Anglo" Doctors.<BR/><BR/>So, if the medical profession wants to provide better doctor/ patient relationship, then these cultural/ language issues must be identified. As highlighted in the video:- "sleepy" Vs "unconscious".<BR/><BR/>Am I making sense? I hope so!simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17329985554257923069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36128386.post-79141255218134488172007-03-13T13:17:00.000-07:002007-03-13T13:17:00.000-07:00You were brilliant.

I only regret that you didn't speak on the clip you posted so I was unable to say: "Hey, I know her!" But truly, the issues being addressed are indentical to the situation in Canada or, if not identical, then at least analogous, especislly as concerns overseas practitioners, which the Medical Association lobbies diligently to keep from licencing, even though the need is huge, especially in the hinterland.<BR/><BR/>IanIan Lidsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14106994463366766471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36128386.post-10249165645108803502007-03-13T09:45:00.000-07:002007-03-13T09:45:00.000-07:00Good points made in favour and against the argumen...Good points made in favour and against the argument - which I always like to see.
