English for Medical Purposes

English for Medical Purposes (EMP) is a specialized form of English tailored for healthcare environments. It focuses on developing language skills necessary for effective communication between medical professionals and patients, such as understanding medical terminology, explaining treatments clearly, and following health instructions. EMP ensures that non-native English speakers can accurately convey and receive health information, enhancing patient care and safety. It combines medical knowledge with language training to equip individuals with the confidence and competence needed in medical settings.
