🏥 Sample Conversation 1: Patient Behavior & RecoveryÂ
Nurse Akua: Yaw, I checked your file. You didn’t come for your medicine last week. Why?
Patient Yaw: Hmm, Nurse… I was feeling better, so I thought I could stop. I abandoned medicine.
Nurse: Yaw, that kind of behavior is not good. If you stop suddenly, the sickness can develop again. It may even become worse.
Patient: Yes, I understand. But the side effects disturb me. My body shakes; I feel weak.
Nurse: That is normal in the beginning. But if you continue, it will get better. You need to check with us regularly so we can help.
Patient: Okay, I accept. I didn’t mean to cause trouble.
Nurse: Good. Don’t blame yourself. But you must try. Make an effort—your health depends on this.
Patient: Thank you, Nurse Akua. I will do my best. I want to grow strong again.
Nurse: Yes. I want to encourage you. You are not alone. We are here to support you.

Sample 2: Antenatal Visit – Eating Habits & HealthÂ
Midwife: Adjoa, welcome. Let’s check your blood pressure and weight. How are you feeling this week?
Pregnant Woman: I feel okay, but I’m tired. I also vomited after eating kenkey and shito.
Midwife: Hmm. That combination can be too spicy for pregnancy. What else did you eat?
Pregnant Woman: Okro soup with yam, and a little pear.
Midwife: That’s better. Try to continue eating healthy foods — vegetables, groundnuts, rice ball, and fish. Avoid too much pepper.
Pregnant Woman: Sometimes I crave buffloaf and coconut.
Midwife: It’s okay to eat those, but don’t abandon healthy options. Your baby depends on your nutrition.
Pregnant Woman: Understood. I’ll make more effort.
Midwife: Good. Don’t blame yourself for small mistakes. Just try and grow good habits. You’re doing well.
