Phone & dialogues

Phone calls on duty and conversations with patients, relatives and colleagues: listen, take notes and speak yourself in the role play.

On the phone there are no faces and no gestures. You only have your voice, little time and often a bad line. That is exactly what you practise here.

Draft, not yet professionally reviewed

The phone calls come from deutschacademy and have been edited for language, but no physician or nurse has reviewed them yet. Orders, values and drugs in them are practice material, not an order and not a standard of your hospital. The workplace dialogues come from this site's trainers and are drafts as well.

How to practise a call

  1. 1ListenTwo voices, normal speed, with a phone-line sound if you like.
  2. 2Take notesValues, names, times: write down what matters on duty.
  3. 3Role playYou are on the phone. Pick your lines, learn from typical mistakes and hear the right version.

Phone calls

With audio, a note slip, questions and a role play.

Remember the sequence

With a fixed order on the phone you forget nothing and are understood. Every call follows a sequence:

Workplace dialogues from the exam trainers

The same dialogues as in the trainers for telc Pflege, physiotherapy and the Fachsprachprüfung, here for speaking: you take a role, say your line out loud and then reveal it.
