Communication in Nursing Practice

Lambrini Kourkouta, Ioanna V. Papathanasiou.




Abstract

Good communication between nurses and patients is essential for the successful outcome of individualized nursing care of each patient. To achieve this, however, nurses must understand and help their patients, demonstrating courtesy, kindness and sincerity. Also they should devote time to the patient to communicate with the necessary confidentiality, and must not forget that this communication includes persons who surround the sick person, which is why the language of communication should be understood by all those involved in it. Good communication also is not only based on the physical abilities of nurses, but also on education and experience.

Key words: Communication, Nursing, Nursing Care, Communicational Skills, Principles of Communication.
