This book examines the interactional practices of nurse
practitioners (NPs) and the delivery of health care in the US. The
author takes a discourse analytic approach, examining the
linguistic resources that NPs employ in their interactions with
patients. These linguistic features are connected to the concept of
professional competency with specific focus on the enactment of the
patient-centered approach. Analytic focus is placed on how NPs
address organizational responsibilities during medical visits with
patients, the form and function of patient education, the use of
indirect speech, and the role that small talk plays in health care
encounters. The book explores the understudied professional field
of nurse practitioners and examines their linguistic practices with
an eye on crossing disciplinary boundaries, integrating research
from linguistics, discourse analysis and health communication. It
will appeal to those interested in medical discourse analysis and
health communication, as well as applied linguistics scholars.
