Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Mrs. Rojas. I've reviewed Camila's assessment, and I'd like to talk through the eating disorder program here at Flinders Medical Centre.
Gracias, doctora. Estoy muy preocupada; casi no ha comido nada esta semana. ¿Qué incluye exactamente este programa?
The program includes weekly weigh-ins, individual counselling, and family therapy sessions. It isn't a locked ward, so she can keep attending school between appointments.
Eso me alivia un poco. ¿Con qué frecuencia serían las sesiones, y tiene algún costo para nosotros?
The program runs for ten weeks, with two sessions each week — one individual, one family-based. Medicare covers most sessions if she has a mental health care plan.
Entiendo. Pero, ¿cuánto tiempo tendríamos que esperar para que la admitan en el programa?
I can't promise an exact date, but referrals like this are usually reviewed within a couple of weeks.
¿Y mientras tanto, qué podemos hacer en casa para ayudarla a comer un poco más?
Try to keep mealtimes calm and structured, without pressuring her to finish everything. Small, regular snacks often help more than large meals.
Gracias, doctora. Si ella se pone muy mal antes de la próxima cita, ¿a quién debo llamar?
If she becomes physically unwell or refuses all food and fluids, call triple zero or bring her straight to the emergency department.
Muchas gracias, doctora. Voy a estar muy atenta, y espero que la llamen pronto.
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.
- MedicareSe deja tal cual, 'Medicare', ya que es un nombre propio de un programa australiano sin equivalente en países hispanohablantes.
- Mental health care planSe traduce como 'plan de atención de salud mental' o se explica como 'un plan del médico para acceder a sesiones de salud mental cubiertas por Medicare'.
- Triple ZeroSe dice 'triple cero' o se explica como 'el número de emergencias, cero, cero, cero'.
- Emergency departmentSe traduce como 'departamento de urgencias' o 'sala de emergencias'.
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.
