For example, the doctor may say that a patient needs bloods and an MRI scan. That can sound very frightening to someone who has been rushed into hospital. It is better if the doctor explains that they need to take some blood to do some simple tests and then explains what a MRI scan is. Understanding the facts can make something seem less scary. j_clark2 https://padlet.com/j_clark2/3x5d0unl0e33/wish/223709022 2018-01-23 10:52:45 UTC https://padlet.com/j_clark2/3x5d0unl0e33/wish/223709022 Slang – when a service user uses language that not everyone uses, such as saying they have a problem with their waterworks. This can mean their plumbing system but also means a problem going to the toilet. Sometimes it may be appropriate to use slang with your peers but in normal working with colleagues or service users you should avoid using any language that can be misunderstood or misinterpreted or that might cause offence j_clark2 https://padlet.com/j_clark2/3x5d0unl0e33/wish/223709106 2018-01-23 10:53:00 UTC https://padlet.com/j_clark2/3x5d0unl0e33/wish/223709106 Dialect – when people use different words for everyday objects or feelings depending on the area of a country they come from. In some areas of England people say ‘innit’ instead of ‘isn’t it’ or ‘summat’ instead of ‘something.’ It may cause confusion if someone says, ‘A’ve got a pain in me heed’ instead of, ‘I’ve got a headache’. j_clark2 https://padlet.com/j_clark2/3x5d0unl0e33/wish/223709228 2018-01-23 10:53:22 UTC https://padlet.com/j_clark2/3x5d0unl0e33/wish/223709228
