Full transcript
Thanks for bringing your father in today, Mrs Ivanova. Could you tell me what changes you've noticed lately in his memory, mood, or daily behaviour?
Той започна да забравя имената на внуците си и постоянно повтаря един и същ въпрос. Миналата седмица се загуби, докато отиваше до магазина наблизо.
How long has this been happening, and has he ever wandered outside alone or gotten lost without anyone realising straight away?
Забелязваме това от около три месеца. Не е падал, слава богу, но се загуби веднъж и не можеше да намери пътя до вкъщи.
I'd like to refer him to the memory clinic at Flinders Medical Centre for a thorough cognitive assessment, and possibly an MRI scan to check for other causes.
Разбирам. А колко време ще чакаме за прегледа и ще трябва ли да плащаме нещо, ако не сме частно осигурени?
The assessment usually takes about six weeks to be scheduled, and there's no cost involved if he's referred through the public hospital system rather than privately.
Добре, ще се погрижим за това у дома. Какво друго можем да направим, за да е в безопасност, докато чакаме прегледа?
In the meantime, it would help to install a stove isolation switch, get a GPS tracker for his keys, and lock away anything sharp or dangerous.
Това звучи полезно, благодаря. Има ли групи за подкрепа, където мога да говоря с други хора в подобна ситуация?
Dementia Australia runs a free national helpline and local carer support groups here in Adelaide, and I'll book his follow-up appointment for four weeks from today.
Благодаря ви много, докторе. Ще запиша датата за след четири седмици и ще се обадя, ако нещо се промени преди това.
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.
- Public hospitalПревежда се като „държавна болница“.
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room 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. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
