Editorial Reviews

3 Stars from Doody

This book tackles the difficult topics related to the affective domain, which is an essential part of successful practice in healthcare. Although the reason is not clear, such issues are often minimized in professional education. One explanation is that expertise is generally not available, and the comfort level among faculty in dealing with these topics is low. This text minimizes the uncertainty of teaching these subjects using an interactive style and including participatory exercises in each chapter. Reminiscent of a psychology self-help book, students can explore their own values, awareness, and communication style in relation to working with patients. The exercises are probably most beneficial if accompanied by group discussion (such as a classroom) but the organization of the chapters is such that the practicing clinician will also benefit greatly from the content. Additions to the third edition are positive and timely. Topics such as interviewing and patient education fit into the current focus on patient responsibility. Patient satisfaction is positively influenced by communication skills in a variety of situations, recognition of health behavior, and personal interaction as described in several chapters. The chapters do flow nicely, but it would be possible to use them independently and at different levels in a curriculum. The content of this text is used in practice more consistently than any other technique or modality, but the number of references on these topics is very limited. The skills presented here are those that probably should be reviewed by practitioners on an annual basis as an ethical awareness refresher course. Given the ease of applying theinformation presented, this book could benefit all those who interact with patients.

Carol Schunk

New edition of a guide to aid in the professional socialization of the medical practitioner, with a view towards developing the ability to feel confidence and empathy and therefore be better equipped to aid in the patient's healing process. The book opens with a section on self awareness which discusses family dynamics, health professional's self-esteem, values as determinants of behavior, and identifying and resolving moral dilemmas. The bulk of the volume is then devoted to interactions with patients, including chapters on the nature of effective helping and effective communication, assertiveness skills, communicating to establish rapport, cultural sensitivity, health behavior and patient education, communicating with persons who have disabilities, communicating with the dying and their families, and stress management.

"This book is well thought out, easy to read, and highly recommended for students and practitioners alike. As generational/societal attitudes continue to evolve, future editions will continue to be necessary."   

— Steven K. Hamick, BIS, RCP, RRT, AE-C (William Beaumont Hospitals) Doody’s Enterprises, Inc.


 "This textbook would certainly be a welcome addition to any health care curriculum or professional practice to assist students and health care providers in learning the art of self-awareness while improving on their communication skills. The art of healing can be developed through its use by identifying ethical, compassionate, and professional treatment approaches to care in the promotion of optimal health care outcomes."

From the Publisher

Reviewer: Steven K Hamick, AAS, BIS (Corewell Health East, William Beaumont University Hospital)
Description: A bestseller since 1988, the fifth edition of this book continues the tradition of helping healthcare professionals develop appropriate communication skills with their patients. The previous edition was published in 2005.
Purpose: It is intended to assist students improve their communication skills when they speak to patients. Conversations with patients can be extremely sensitive, and this book provides readers with the communication tools necessary to appropriately engage in these types of conversations.
Audience: The book is written primarily for healthcare students, but some practitioners may find it helpful as well. The author is unquestionably an expert in the field.
Features: This edition specifically addresses the frustration of how to help Millennial or Generation Y students (many of whom devote much of their day interacting with electronic devices instead of socializing with people) develop better communication skills. The early chapters assist readers in developing self-awareness and developing and differentiating their values from professional values. Ethical and moral aspects of care are explored, as is diversity. Virtues of empathy, sympathy, and care ethics are also explored. The remaining chapters teach actual skill development. End-of-chapter exercises help readers practice what they have learned.
Assessment: This book is well thought out, easy to read, and highly recommended for students and practitioners alike. As generational/societal attitudes continue to evolve, future editions will continue to be necessary.
