If you are unable to follow or understand this video it means you need to first develop basic ASL competency by studying earlier lessons and then revisit this video.

Hello ASL Heroes!!!
Hey, I could really use your help.
If you’ve enjoyed having access to an expert in ASL you can help me continue my work for you.
A small monthly donation from you would instantly make a big difference here at the studio because teachers don’t earn much and I could use some help paying for server and domain hosting for Lifeprint.com.
Right now you can help out a humble (not to mention kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher -- just go here and a few clicks later you too will be a true “ASL Hero!”

Thanks!

Bill, I want to express my appreciation to you for the gift of your teaching. You are so awesome. I once knew quite a bit of ASL, which I have sadly forgotten. I wasn't sure where to go, and I found you! I am on a mission to re-learn ASL so that I can assist my deaf patients in any way possible, so they don't fall between the cracks.
With Covid this has been super helpful for communicating with deaf patients! Thank you so much!
Someday it might be "me" laying in that bed gasping for air with the tubes up my nose -- and you'll be like: "Hmmm he looks sort of familiar?!?"
@@sign-languagehush,Bill!!!😂
She is a good learner and she has a good sense of humor ... like her reactions ... you teach them well
THANK YOU! I work in psych and have a deaf patient and this was a tremendous help!!!!!
Thank you, Mr. Vicars, for being such a great teacher in ASL. Your videos are quite informative and exciting. I have learned a lot from you and truly, truly appreciate all the time you have spent creating these videos for people like me who want to communicate with everyone. I know quite a bit of ASL, but learned SEE(SIGNED EXACT ENGLISH) first,before realizing that most in the deaf community don't use it as much. And because of that, I felt that I was offending them because this was the way I talked and not them. You have helped me so much in learning ASL that I now feel comfortable communicating. I'm no expert, but I do my best to grow in my knowledge of this beautiful and expressive language. Again thank you so much and keep up the great work that you do. God Bless You.
I've been watching your basic ASL learning sessions for some time. I would like to thank you for this one on medical terminology words it is extremely helpful since I work in a clinic and we have several patients. Sometimes the interpreters are late or are called to other more urgent locations. You have helped me greatly. Thank you Prof. BV. Very greatful to you. Kv
Hiii!! This is the reason why I decided to start learning ASL.It's been about 2weeks since I started and I can't wait to learn this signs.This is soooo helpful!! Thank you!!
Bill I admire you!!! I will need you all you support to reach my dreams! With humble a great friend
I'm leaning this for my son and also for a customer where I work. You make it enjoyable to watch and understand. 🤗👌🎁 you're awesome
~ April
I am here because I think all the patients should feel safe and have the ability to be understood
Thank you, that was very helpful
It is much appreciated when members of the medical profession make the additional effort to learn how to communicate via signing. It doesn't replace having a qualified / skilled interpreter but it sure does make it nicer while waiting for terps to arrive and/or during extended (multi-day stays) when a 24/7 interpreter presence may not be warranted.

Thank you so much. I always wanted to learn the sign language for the medical profession.
I just wanted to thank you for having such great videos. I have always wanted to learn asl now that I've found your videos, I'm off to a good start.
Hey Bill, watching a lot of your lessons lately. The closed captions have been really helpful in learning and I would really appreciate them for this video if you would be able to make it happen. Few times there I was a bit lost with what was trying to be conveyed
Thanks for these videos! I’m a crisis worker and have been watching this series to expand my emergency sign language vocabulary.
I was wondering if there is a simplified emergency sign language video that I could share with my coworkers (first responders/healthcare)? I have looked but can’t find a good one aimed at essential communication during emergencies
Hello Bill i love asl and thanks a lot for the medical terms i am also going to school so i can become better at it love your videos
So I work in a nursing home. And there was a rumor going around that we were going to receive a elderly gentleman that is deaf, he speaks very little. And he can sign, but no one knows how to use ASL! He can get aggressive if he gets upset, so some of are trying to learn as quickly as possible. Signs like it’s time to eat, and time for shower, here are your medications to take, stand, let’s walk, time for bed, brush your teeth, and some others I can recall right now
I have a niece that I would love to be able to talk to more.
I'm of hearing and learned the 'sign' alphabet when I was about 12 years old and it stuck in my head.
To be honest this video is helpful but In 10 second sections.
So fast to understand, but it's there to learn. Thanks.
This course was taught to university students who had recently completed ASL 1, 2, 3, and 4 and other courses that prepared them to benefit from this course. If it seems fast to you (or anyone else reading this comment) that is an indication that you would benefit from viewing or taking easier courses first.
I recommend you visit the ASLU master playlist and scroll down through the videos until you find some that go at a pace that works for you. See item 2 below for the link to the playlist.

bet he's really funny Hey cracks me up
Wow! there is volume In this one!?
Thank you thank you thank you for this!
Half ASL, half comedy sketch...
Hello Dr Bill Vicars you very good thanks
HOORAY!! Thank you for sharing these!!!!!
thank you
You are awesome 👌
Thank you so much!
thank you !!
Excellent class!!!
I wish there were subtitles so I can understand what you say when you aren’t translating a word off the screen
These are ASL 4 and ASL 5 students (in my studio audience).
Thus if you haven't already done so I encourage you to go through Lessons 1 through 60 prior to watching the Medical Signing videos.
Bill Vicars thank you for getting back to me! And okay I will thank you so much I enjoy learning from you
I love your videos, i just have one question. I noticed in this video, the student often signs with reverse handedness to you- ie using her left hand instead of right for some signs. Does this make a difference?
See: www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/rightorlefthand.htm
Also see:
www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/lefthandedsigners.htm
At 9:10 I think you say "yes call my mom ......" But I'm not sure of the rest (besides "me") I was wonder if I was I was correct and if you could let me know what those last few signs were (I'm still learning)
I signed:
Yes, call my mom to come pick me up. Ride home.

Thanks!
this is super interesting. but i think i need to go and learn the basic lesson. lol
Thank you my daughter is doing well You so sweet i just wanted to ask if you would do more sign language Please and thank. XOXOXO
Wow i like u work that u will do me to learn sign language just i need share teach them who need add know better it ahah
Thank you. But I need subtitles. I’m not getting some of it
That particular class has a prerequisite of "ASL 4."
So if you haven't finished Lessons 1 through 60 yet I recommend you do those first (and maybe some of my other videos as well) "then" come back and watch the medical signing videos later on..
I'm only on lesson 7, so this is jumping ahead, but I am a phlebotomist and I want to learn signs appropriate to what I do. I have found the sign for BLOOD-DRAW, but when introducing myself would it be better to say MY-WORK-BLOOD-DRAW or to fingerspell phlebotomist? The general public isn't always familiar with my title. Is there a sign for phlebotomist?
This is what I was thinking: HELLO-MY-NAME--L-A-U-R-E-N. I--P-H-L-E-B-O-T-O-M-I-S-T. I-BLOOD-DRAW.
This is too advanced for me. I wished you could have captions for all your convo.
Instead of wishing for captions, might I instead suggest that you invest the time and effort to prepare yourself to benefit from the video. This video is of an actual class going on.
Students in college are expected to complete the prerequisites before taking an advanced class. That is a real student sitting next to me. In the studio audience are other students. None of them are using captions.
Instead, they completed ASL 1, ASL 2, ASL 3, and ASL 4 , and ASL Fingerspelling classes BEFORE taking "Medical Sign Language." They did the "work" necessary to become ready to take that class.
Go to my channel's home page and work your way through the beginning level videos until you have completed Lesson 60 THEN come back and watch this medical video. If you still can't get it then watch all of the other videos in my repository first and come back and watch "this" (medical signing) video.
________________________________________
On the other hand:
If you would like to donate the cost of having the videos captioned I would be happy to arrange for the captioning.

Thanks in advance.
What if you have bangs? Does it make a difference in how others will read your facial expressions?
Question:
A student asks: "What if you have bangs? Does it make a difference in how others will read your facial expressions?"
Response:
If your bangs are long enough to cover your eyebrows it will have an impact on how easily your signing is understood since the eyebrows play a significant role in the facial grammar that is used to indicate whether you are signing a question -- and if so -- what type of question you are asking.
Most skilled signers can still figure out if you are asking a question and what type of question you are asking simply by evaluating the tilt of your your head, small changes in the muscles in your face (particularly around your eyes) the signs you use, and the context of your signing.
I know some ASL teachers who are not overly thrilled when they have to grade video submissions by students with bangs because it requires more attention to determine if a student with (long) bangs is indeed using proper facial grammar for their sentences. This becomes onerous (requiring a level of effort that becomes burdensome) if the signing is being evaluated from a poorly lit video viewed in a tiny window frame in which the student's head is approximately 3/4 of an inch in size.
Does that mean you should cut your bangs?
I suppose it depends on if you are taking a graded ASL class or not.
If you become a professional sign language interpreter you might seriously want to consider a hair style that doesn't involve bangs.
Might I recommend to you my own personal hair style? It is easy to maintain and I literally never have a bad hair day. Ever.
Warm regards,
- Dr. Bill
@@sign-language last paragraph in ur response is hilarious....love your vids and personality btw
thank u dr Vicars you funny
I got to lesson 60 and there were no more....... was that it? Do I know asl now?
I suppose you could go to the general "videos" list and check out some of the other videos.
th-cam.com/users/billvicarsvideos
If you want to know if you "know" ASL -- go meet Deaf folks and have conversations.
im stil student and learning. next month will start clinical. just need to know is the medical sign is universal across the world?
anyone know please tell
Certainly not.
@@sign-language thats too bad. But thank you. Nice video btw. I did learn some signs😁
dont follow? is there CC
Woah...you are watching one of the medical signing videos. Those are for advanced students. I recommend first going through the instructional series for levels 1 through 4 prior to doing any of the special topics.
How advanced is she? She couldn't sign "alright" very well even after several of his examples.
That particular student had probably completed ASL 4 and was likely taking ASL 5 concurrently.
She probably had several different teachers prior to showing up in my class. Interestingly, it is sort of a good thing when my interns struggle with a sign -- because if the sign is hard for them it is probably hard for quite a few folks in the viewing audience who will benefit from the struggles of the intern as she progresses ever closer toward fluency.
Bill Vicars Thank you. Looking back, I hope I didn't seem overly critical. I'm struggling, so I often compare my progress to others. When I took a general knowledge test years ago, I failed the "spatial relationship" part, so I think I have trouble recognizing shapes as well as other students.
