Looking for a practical, entry-level book to teach the valuable skill of communicating with patients?

Communication for Nurses offers direct, effective techniques that are delivered in a concise, user-friendly format, enabling readers to develop a professional communication style.The early chapters review nursing, communication and developmental theories. Issues of cultural diversity and patient rights are discussed providing a thoughtful perspective on communication. Important concepts and interviewing techniques are presented for starting and developing the nurse-patient relationship.The later chapters profile communicating with specific groups, including patients of different ages, people with physical impairments, and patients in crisis. A section on communicating with peers and other health care providers reviews relationship building, assertiveness, and negotiation skills.Exercises at the end of each chapter provide the opportunity to review, practice, and refine communication skills. The techniques and situations enable nursing students and practicing nurses to develop their abilities, prepare for a variety of patients and situations, and tailor their personal style to effectively communicate with individual patients.
