£19.90£22.80 (-13%)
The new edition of this well regarded book introduces the underpinning theory and concepts required for the development of first class communication and interpersonal skills in nursing.
By providing a simple to read overview of the central topics, students are able to quickly gain a solid, evidence-based grounding in the subject. Topics covered include: empathy; building therapeutic relationships; using a variety of communication methods; compassion and dignity; communicating in different environments; and culture and diversity issues.
Three new chapters have been added that point readers towards further ways of approaching their communication skills that are less model and technique driven and focusing more on therapeutic considerations, as well as looking at the politics of communication.

Great thankyou

Love this book. Really helped with my assignments so far.
by Charlotte Le Tissier
Very philosophical/high-level theoretical. Seems like it would be useful for writing a thesis, interesting read but not an easy one, not particularly practical; if you are wanting to learn/improve communication skills as a student nurse, McCabe and Timmins is much more user-friendly and learner-friendly, practically-focused, to-the-point and easy to dip in and out of.

Very good book, I would highly recommend. Even as a qualified nurse this book had some really insightful chapters and was helpful in giving me inspiration for written work.
