Patients Prefer Talking to a Computer

Those of us who don’t want to tell our doctor how much we really drink are often more honest with a computer. In fact many patients say they prefer talking to a computer to talking to their doctors.

"Computers don’t expect you to smile or socially relate to them when you are filling ill, "said psychiatrist and program writer Dr. Tony Carr.

Dr. Carr of the Maudsley Hospital in London tries to make sure his programs are friendly. For example, if a patient called Anna says that both her parents are dead, the computer will say: "I’m sorry to hear that, Anna.”

As well as expressing sympathy, the computer can also question and remind. If a patient says he never drinks alcohol, the computer can ask him: "Never? Not even at parties or at Christmas?”

Computers are doing everyday interviews which used to take up a lot of a doctor’s time. And of course it is cheaper to use a computer than a highly-trained person.

Does this direct contact between the patients and the computer mean that we do not need doctors anymore?

It depends. Computers are useful because they do not get embarrassed. They do not look shocked if you say you drink two bottles of whisky a day. And they do not stop to talk on the phone as doctors often do.

But as Dr. Mike Pringle, a family doctor in Nottinghamshire, said: "We smile and we give a patient a hankie or put an arm round her shoulder if she is crying. This is why people will always want us.

Answer the questions

1.Are patients always honest with doctors?

2. Do patients prefer talking to a computer or to their doctor?

3. Can you prove that computer programs are friendly?

4. What can computers do?

5. Are computers more important than doctors?

 Translate from Russian into English

1. Не все пациенты бывают откровенны с врачом.
2. Пациенты предпочитают общаться с компьютером.
3. Компьютеры могут задавать пациентам вопросы
4. Использование компьютера более экономично, чем работа высококвалифицированного специалиста.
5. Людям всегда будут нужны врачи.

Looking at Both Sides

Kotoen is in Tokyo. It is a home for the elderly. But it is not a gloomy place. The people who live there are always bright and cheerful. The reason for this is the happy voices of the children who attend the nursery school located in the same building. Eighty children aged one and a half to five or six go to this school.

Kotoen is the home for about 100 senior citizens. They miss family life and they can visit the nursery school whenever they wish. Children often come to play in their rooms. In the morning , both old and young do exercises. Special dates such as Christmas and sports days are celebrated together. " The children learn how to care for others by talking and being with their older co-residents ,” explained the director of Kotoen. "The elderly become more alive and their health improves thanks to their association with the children. The relationship between the very old and the very young is affectionate.”

The success of Kotoen has created a sensation in Japan and brought responses from all over the country. Fewer and fewer children are born in Japan each year and there is unused space in nursery schools. It was suggested to accommodate elderly in such schools. Thus the children can experience the advantages of close contact with people of much older generation.

Answer the questions

1. What is Kotoen?
2. Why is it a cheerful place?
3. Why do old people like to be with children?
4. How does the association with children affect old people?
5. What is the use for children of staying side by side with old people?
