IN THIS LESSON
ID: 2407 Upper Intermediate
Violence between patients, their families and medical personnel have become a problem throughout China as the country continues to modernize its medical treatment facilities. Many Chinese people have high expectations of doctors and are unfamiliar with many medical practices. In addition, doctors often work in crowded conditions which makes it difficult to communicate with patients effectively. This lesson simulates a news broadcast investigating a violent clash between doctors and patients.
