    Learn Spanish for Harm Reduction

    Learn Spanish for Harm Reduction

    In this lesson, Elizabet Cortez from Español Sin Límite, and I discuss Harm Reduction in Spanish. According to the National Institutes of Health, harm reduction is defined as interventions aimed to help people avoid the negative effects of drug use, namely infections and overdose.  It also allows us to meet people where they are with kindness and respect.We discuss a recent Radio Ambulante episode, Sala de Consumo, which tells the story of two organizations in Mexico that use a harm reduction strategy by providing safe tools and a supervised setting for using drugs.After the discussion, we practice some of the key vocabulary. Member at docmolly.com?

AndreaS NP ,

Fantastic resource

Doc Molly’s podcast as well as her website provide the most useful types of medical Spanish lessons. After taking many different types of medical Spanish classes from college courses to study abroad immersion programs and other medical Spanish online courses, her content has been the most useful for a practicing clinician needing to review specific medical vocabulary and practice speaking in a clinical setting. It is worth the premium for access to her courses as well.

AngeeOT ,

Very useful for healthcare providers

I have learned a lot from this podcast as a non native speaker. I enjoy the explanation of how it is said in English versus Spanish and it has helped me adapt the way I translate things my head.

Even if you are not planning to become fluent in Spanish, knowing this vocabulary can help you for those situations you will see in the office.

If you would like to include occupational therapy based notes in the podcast, that would also be great!

Invaluable resource

As a non native Spanish speaker volunteering as an interpreter in a free medical clinic, I find these premium medical lessons invaluable. I appreciate the additional grammar reviews, i.e. why the subjunctive is required, the use of an article in reference to a body part, etc. and the rating of the lessons from beginning to advanced levels. Although I am always in need of lessons, I’m delighted with the challenge of upper intermediate/advanced lessons. The lessons are well paced and the option to actually read the script helps clarify questions that are not always audible, as well as provides a reference as to how words are spelled. Bien hecho, Molly, y muchísimas gracias!
