The art of good communication is an essential skill that every
healthcare professional must master in this increasingly demanding and
challenging healthcare climate.From medical, nursing and allied health
students to experienced doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals,
the authors of The Bedside Communication Handbook -- with more than 20
years of teaching 'Clinical Communication' -- present common and
challenging communication scenarios and share important principles and
useful phrases which can be used to help busy healthcare professionals
communicate better with patients and their relatives.This is probably
the only such book set in an Asian context. It will contain practical
tips and model statements that would help to guide the readers in
improving their communication skills and preventing a communication faux
pas.
