Taking a user-friendly, modular approach, GRAMMAR AND WRITING SKILLS FOR THE HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, 3e, helps entry-level health care students combine correct grammar with medical language as they prepare professional reports and documentation. The text is organized into independent sections within three modules -- enabling learners to study concepts in the order that best suits their needs. Focusing on basic grammar, the first module equips readers with the guidelines and practical knowledge they will need in real-world practice.

The third module emphasizes the thinking process involved in writing and grammar at the entry level and includes a step-by-step writing process that offers a simple approach to writing a resume and cover letter as well as medical reports, correspondence, emails, office meeting minutes, progress notes, charting, research, and brochures.
