Arabic transliteration guide for common antimicrobial usage terms¶

Evidence · no claims cited

Description¶

A badge-sized transliteration card was created to support communication by listing the most commonly used terms related to antimicrobial therapy, addressing the language barrier where most nurses at the institution are non-Arabic speakers caring primarily for Arabic-speaking patients. The guide maps English words such as antibiotic, antifungal, fever, culture, infection, and allergy to their Arabic transliterations and written Arabic forms. It was "shared with all nurses and discussed during the course" as a resolution to the language barrier identified in task force feedback.
