This one day interactive masterclass is aimed at healthcare professionals who want to practice and improve their personal communication skills.
In addition to the physical aspects of their disease, many people with chronic or life limiting illness face major psychological issues. Practitioners working in this demanding environment encounter challenging inter-professional as well as personal communication situations frequently.
By listening and talking, health professionals play an important role in helping patients, clients, carers and colleagues make the many adjustments required along the way.
Primarily, this one day masterclass invites practitioners to reflect and subsequently advance their personal communication skills with this client group, their family and colleagues. The teaching on this masterclass will be experiential and therefore there is an expectation of student participation throughout the day.
