Library staff are running short sessions designed as an introduction to medical terminology for non-medical staff.

Medical words can seem unpronounceable and complicated but by learning how the words are made up, and what each component of the word means, we can begin to understand these terms better.

This session will cover the components of medical words, using prefixes and suffixes, and the Greek and Latin origins of medical words.

The next sessions are via Microsoft Teams and are taking place on:

• Tuesday 22nd October 2pm to 3pm
• Thursday 28th November 10.30 to 11.30

Places can be booked on LMS - search for ‘Short Introduction to Medical Terminology.
