Types of Communication 1. Verbal Communication: Much of the communication process in the clinical interview. 2. Non-verbal Communication : Communication between two people is usually onethird non-verbal. What is said verbally often is emphasized nonverbally, and personal attitudes and emotions usually are communicated at the nonverbal level.
TYPES OF DOCTOR-PATIENT RELATIONSHIPS 1. Default 2. Paternalism 3. Consumerism 4. Mutuality (Partnership)
1. Default - Patient and doctor have low control the patient adopts a passive role even when the doctor reduces some of his/her control. This type of relationship is neither professional nor effective.
2. Paternalism - Doctor has high control (Disease Model) In this type of relationship, the physician is dominant and chooses what he/she believes to be in the patient‘s best interest. Some patients even found it comforting to be able to rely on the doctor and be relieved of burdens of worry and decision making.
3. Consumerism - Patient has high control A consumerist relationship describes a situation in which the patient takes the active role and the doctor adopts a passive role, agreeing to the patient‘s requests for a second opinion, referral to hospital, a sick note, etc. This is typical in private practice.
4. Mutuality (Partnership) - Patient and doctor have high control (Illness Model) A relationship of mutuality is characterized by the active involvement of patients, where both patient and physician participate in the exchange of ideas and sharing of belief systems.
Difficulties in communication poor communication is the most important factor causing complaints from patients and relatives against doctors. Effective communication depends on four interrelated factors concerning the message the doctor (the sender), the patient (the recipient), the message itself and the environment in which the message is sent.
The environment The physical environment is important. 1 -The appearance, size of consulting rooms, waiting rooms will affect communication, especially if privacy is threatened. 2 -The doctor can create an obstacle simply by a physical ‘barrier’, for example, a large desk. 3 -A busy practice (time)will influence communications seriously.
The message The nature and content of the message may be uncomfortable for the doctor or the patient or both. such as sexual problems, malignant disease, drug abuse , and psychiatric disorders. The patient may find the message difficult to understand. Failure to reassure the patient (where appropriate) distracts the patient.
The doctor Although most doctors satisfactorily meet professional standards, there are times when the communication is adversely affected by chronic tiredness, stress, domestic problems and poor health.
