Preface
English for Health-care Providers is a textbook for teachers and learners of English for the
health-care-providing professions, from traditional ones such as GPs to the various allied
health professions.
As an English language textbook, English for Health-care Providers addresses the four
traditional skills language educators have long identified, i.e. listening, speaking, reading,
and writing, as well as important aspects of language learning such as grammar and
vocabulary. Given this, each unit follows a similar structure, with seven subsections:
 Introduction.
 Grammar.
 Reading.
 Vocabulary.
 Listening.
 Speaking.
 Writing.
Each unit begins with a short introduction presenting the topic of the unit. The introduction
is followed by a grammar section. After a reading section, a vocabulary-building section
can be found. The book finishes with three sections: listening, speaking, and writing.
