How can nurses ensure effective communication during appointments?
Effective communication is key to a successful nursing appointment. Nurses can achieve this by:
1. Active Listening: Paying full attention to the patientâs concerns without interrupting. 2. Clear Instructions: Providing easy-to-understand explanations and instructions. 3. Empathy and Compassion: Showing understanding and sensitivity to the patientâs feelings and conditions. 4. Non-verbal Communication: Using appropriate body language to convey attentiveness and concern.
