Medical 3.4 & 3.5 at Gentofte Hospital

Speak Medical / Danish for doctors at Gentofte Hospital

The course takes place at Gentofte Hospital. We offer modules 4 & 5 in Danish Education 3.

Goal: 

In Speak Medical we will work towards Danish Examination 3 (PD3) in order to enable you to obtain the grades that are required to apply for Danish authorisation. This means, that we are working on you being able to pass PD3 with the grades 7, 7, 10, which are the required minimum grades to be able to register for the medical knowledge examinations.

The teaching at both modules 3.4 & 3.5 includes more lessons than a regular day class.

See the authorisation rules here.

Content:

The course holds the same elements as the regular Danish courses, but with a main focus on areas that are important, when working as a medical doctor, dentist or nurse in Denmark. For example a vocabulary related to the human body and diseases as well as focus on a good pronunciation, communication with patients and colleagues and knowledge about the Danish healthcare system.

As part of the instruction, you will be taught by Danish medical doctors and you will be able to practice and participate in simulated conversations with patients based on concrete cases.

Every week, we present you with a clinical lecture, which is training in listening comprehension and an introduction to medical terminology in Danish as well as a training in discussing authentic/relevant cases in Danish. Thus these lectures are both a supplement to the Danish lessons but also a form of preparation for the medical knowledge examinations.

All course participants are medical doctors, dentists or nurses, which gives you a good opportunity to build and expand your professional network.
