ADMISSION
This unit will show you some useful expression for
an interview. A patient is given an
admission form. It is done before a patient enters a hospital to obtain about
case history, in order to determine a patient goes to appropriate ward. After
that, a nurse receives the patient. The
nurse develops a precise report of care based on the temperature chart, case
history sheet and care report. Therefore a nurse needs an interview.
