As healthcare
settings become ever more complex, effective communication increasingly
underpins the success of NHS professionals – in their relationships both with patients
and colleagues. Speaking, listening and writing skills can be optimised to
ensure that patients experience high-quality interactions with healthcare professionals,
helping to improve the overall standard of their care. Being an effective
communicator also enables a professional to reduce stress in their own daily
work and gain enhanced career prospects.
We have provided a list of relevant articles from MA Healthcare
journals dealing with this area, thereby providing your staff with research,
information and tips that will support both their work and the quality of care for
their patients.
