English Language Skills 2 (ELSK 0702)

Students continue to receive ongoing English language instruction and support as they build on the skills developed in ELSK 0701. Reading, writing, and interactive communication (listening and speaking) skills are taught concurrently and in conjunction with topics in the Health Care Assistant Level 2 curriculum. Students continue to develop their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills through activities and real-world communicative tasks relevant to the healthcare setting and aligned with the performance outcomes at the target Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) levels (Listening 7, Speaking 7, Reading 6, Writing 6). Students’ interpersonal professional communication skills are enhanced in class and in clinical while providing care for clients in a special care setting. Throughout the course, students also increase their awareness of workplace expectations, environment and appropriate language. Upon completion of ELSK 0702, students have the communication skills required to provide personal care for clients in a special care setting and to interact professionally and appropriately with clients and health team members.
