Highlight the importance of communication when establishing a good patient nurse relationship, the effects that communication can have on this relationship and the problems that can arise from ineffective communication.
. INTRODUCTION
In this report I will try to highlight the importance of communication when establishing a good patient nurse relationship, the effects that communication can have on this relationship and the problems that can arise from ineffective communication.
During this report I will attempt to include every components used in nurse patient communication i.e. verbal, non-verbal, trust and listening. I will outline a basic communication model and briefly describe its theories.
This report will be based on a scenario in which a student nurse shall accompany an elderly nursing home resident to an outpatient's hospital appointment. With regard to confidentiality and in compliance to legal guidelines "all patient/client information is confidential and should be used solely for the purpose it was given." (NMC Code of Professional Conduct 2002 clause 5), the patients name has been changed. For the purpose of this scenario the patient will be called Mr Smith.
Through writing this report I hope to gain the knowledge needed to establish and maintain good interpersonal relationships, whilst also learning more about the ethics and legislation behind patient care.
