This dictionary helps address an important issue in medical communication: Just because you or the interpreter knows the correct sign for a medical term doesn't mean your deaf patient does. This spiral bound book is designed to be laid flat on a table during a medical interview. It not only illustrates the proper signs, it also gives definitions of medical terms in plain English. In addition, it defines many terms which would need to be fingerspelled because they have no established signs. There are anatomical diagrams in the back to assist with explanations as well. It does not discuss grammar and doesn't address Deaf culture as it relates to medical care, so it is not intended as a stand-alone book for medical professionals or interpreting students.
