Abstract

Abstract. The article clarifies necessity of communication skills usage by foreign students during professional practice at higher medical education institutions. The essence of the term “communicationˮ is clarified. In order to determine the ways of effective training of communication and professional skills, the structure of professional medical communication is investigated and set of communication skills necessary for conversation in typical situations of professional activity is determined. It is established that the skills of listening and speaking, which are realized in speech at all stages of training at higher medical education institution and in all types of professional communication, should be reflected through the technology of forming communication skills. Linguodidactic principles for the formation of professional communication skills during the study of theoretical and clinical disciplines by foreign medical students have been formulated. Organizational and methodical approaches to the formation of foreign students’ professional communication skills in the learning process are disclosed. It is shown that the formation of communicative competence is carried out in stages from the first year of studying theoretical disciplines to the completion of studying clinical disciplines. We believe that teaching materials will help foreign students to apply freely communication skills in conversation with patients, reasonably express their own views on the course, treatment or prevention of the disease.
