remettre sur le métier leur clinique making improvements to their clinics Explanation: In general, remettre quelque chose sur le métier means to make improvements to something. given the context, I would consider this to be the correct translation since all the other clinics are obliged to make an effort in order to be competitive. Also, clinics in France usually have a better reputation than hospitals for healthcare quality and this aspect may help explain the meaning of remettre sur le métier. I hope this helps you. |
