Abstract

This article investigates the theoretical and methodological foundations for developing the professional-linguistic competence of prospective physicians in higher medical education institutions through an integrated competency-based approach. The cognitive limitations of the traditional grammar-translation method are scientifically substantiated, and a novel pedagogical framework synthesising CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) and EMP (English for Medical Purposes) is proposed. The paper systematises the didactic mechanisms of Case-Based Learning (CBL), the international SOAP documentation standard, the Calgary-Cambridge consultation guide, and medical deontology within language pedagogy. The theoretical insights contribute to the conceptual modernisation of medical curricula in alignment with global standards (WFME, EBM).
