ADDITIONAL INFORMATION;
Introduction
Communication strategies are a key component of effective professional nursing practice and can be used by nurses to promote positive interactions with other disciplines and professionals. Communication strategies include initiating, seeking and maintaining two-way interactions with other healthcare professionals; maintaining confidential interactions; maintaining nonjudgemental and open interactions; maintaining honest and open interactions; using assertive communication to promote positive interaction between nursing and other healthcare professionals. As you will see in this article, communication strategies have been shown to improve the quality of care received by patients as well as promote collaboration between nursing staff members who work together daily within hospitals or clinics.
Initiate, seek and maintain two-way interactions with other disciplines and professionals.
-
Initiate, seek and maintain two-way interactions with other disciplines and professionals.
Nurses are often the first healthcare professionals to interact with patients and their families. As such, nurses need to initiate, seek and maintain two-way interactions with other disciplines and professionals. This can be done by:
-
initiating contact (e.g., asking someone else’s advice) when needed;
-
seeking new knowledge through inquiries or questions (e.g., “How do you decide if someone needs therapy?”);
-
maintaining regular communication with colleagues who have expertise in areas where you lack knowledge (e.g., “Do you know anyone who treats this condition? I’d love some guidance on how best to manage it.”).
Maintain confidential interactions.
You should maintain confidentiality with your colleagues. You should not share information about patients or their care without permission from the patient or family. This may include sharing information with other healthcare professionals, such as physicians and nurses.
If you notice that someone has shared confidential information without your knowledge, ask them to stop immediately so that you can talk about the issue in private (see more on this topic below).
Maintain nonjudgemental and open interactions.
To be successful, it is important that nurses promote open and nonjudgemental interactions with all members of the healthcare team. These include:
-
maintaining a professional attitude and demeanor
-
being respectful of differences in age, gender, race or ethnicity, sexual orientation and socioeconomic status
-
treating every person with dignity and respect regardless of their background or previous experience with health care services (e.g., patients who have experienced past negative experiences)
For example: A nurse might say something like this when talking about how she feels about another nurse: “I think we need to work together more often on patient rounds; I think our communication style could be better if we were all on the same page about what matters most for each individual case.”
Maintain honest and open interactions.
-
Maintain honest and open interactions. Nurses are often seen as the experts in their field, but this can be detrimental to collaboration with other healthcare disciplines. When we talk about our nursing knowledge or expertise, we need to make sure that it is genuine and based on facts instead of assumptions or personal opinions.
-
Be open to other’s ideas; don’t push back on them if they differ from yours! If a colleague has a better idea than yours (or any idea at all), don’t get defensive—let them know that their input is valued and valuable! You’ll find that people appreciate when you’re willing to listen with an open mind rather than just dismissing their suggestions outright because they’re not what you’d prefer happening yourself.”
Use assertive communication to promote positive interaction between nursing and other healthcare professionals.
-
Be assertive, not aggressive.
-
Use nonjudgemental language.
-
Don’t use emotional language. For example, if you want to ask someone to do something differently or more efficiently, avoid phrases like “You can’t just walk out there and expect me to run around after you!” Instead say something like: “I would appreciate your help in getting this patient back into bed as soon as possible—would it help if I told you that the patient has pneumonia?” Also remember that nurses are always available for consultations if needed!
Nurses should use communication strategies to promote collaboration with other disciplines and professionals
Nurses should use communication strategies to promote collaboration with other disciplines and professionals. Nurses can use assertive communication, maintain honest and open interactions, maintain nonjudgemental and open interactions, maintain confidential interactions with patients or their families.
Conclusion
I hope this article has given you a better idea of what communication strategies can be used to promote collaboration between nursing and other healthcare professionals. Although it is difficult to predict the future, I believe that nurses will continue to have an important role in promoting collaboration between disciplines and professionals within the health care system.
