Full transcript
Since your father began palliative care at Prince of Wales Hospital last Monday, how has he been coping with the pain management and his appetite overall?
شكراً ممرضة. للأسف، والدي يتألم كثيراً في الليل ولا ينام جيداً، وشهيته للطعام ضعيفة جداً هذه الأيام. هل يمكن تعديل جرعة الدواء؟
Currently our nurses visit twice daily to check his symptoms, but if his pain worsens at night, we can adjust his medication dose immediately.
أقدّر ذلك. هل يوجد دعم إضافي من الفريق، مثل جلسات دعم نفسي لنا كعائلة؟
Yes, our social worker and hospital chaplain can meet with your family for up to three sessions each week, at no cost to you.
هذا مطمئن جداً، شكراً لكِ. هل يمكن ترتيب هذا الاجتماع هذا الأسبوع؟
We can schedule a family meeting this Thursday at ten in the morning, unless you would prefer a different day this week.
يوم الخميس مناسب لنا جميعاً. هل ستستمر الزيارات المنزلية بنفس التكرار؟
Home visits will continue twice daily for now, unless his condition stabilises soon, in which case we would reduce visits to once daily.
أفهم ذلك. بالمناسبة، هل يمكن توفير سرير طبي ومعدات أخرى له في المنزل؟
A hospital bed and other equipment have already been arranged for your home, and will be delivered within forty-eight hours, at no extra cost.
شكراً جزيلاً على كل هذا الاهتمام. سنكون جاهزين لاستلام السرير والمعدات في الوقت المحدد.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- palliative careالأفضل قول "الرعاية التسكينية" أو "الرعاية الملطِّفة"، وهما المصطلحان المستخدمان في الأدبيات الطبية العربية لنفس المفهوم.
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
