gediplomeerde verpleegkundigen Explanation: There is nothing like a ’licensed practical nurse’ (Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Licensed_Practical_Nurse) in the Belgian or Dutch health system. Good rules for medical translations: - Translate the message, not the words - Err on the safe side - Inform the customer about necessary localization implemented in Translator’s Notes Conclusion: Delete the ’licensed practical nurse’ (’registered practical nurses, licensed practical nurses,’ > ’ gediplomeerde verpleegkundigen,’) |
