Empathy is essential to effectively engaging patients as partners
in care. Clinicians' empathy is increasingly understood as a
professional competency, a mode and process of relating that can be
learned and taught. Communication and empathy training are
penetrating healthcare professions curricula as knowledge about the
most effective modalities to train, maintain, and deepen empathy
grows. This book draws on a wide range of contributors across many
disciplines, and takes an evidence-based and longitudinal approach
to clinical empathy education. It takes the reader on an engaging
journey from understanding what empathy is (and how it can be
measured), to approaches to empathy education informed by those
understandings. It elaborates the benefits of embedding empathy
training in graduate and post-graduate curricula and the importance
of teaching empathy in accord with the clinician's stage of
professional development. Finally, it examines systemic
perspectives on empathy and empathy education in the clinical
setting, addressing issues such as equity, stigma, and law. Each
section is full of the latest evidence-based research, including,
notably, the advances that have been made over recent decades in
the neurobiology of empathy. Perspectives among the
interdisciplinary chapters include: Neurobiology of empathy
Measuring empathy in healthcare Teaching clinicians about affect
Teaching cultural humility: Understanding the core of others by
reflecting on ours Empathy and implicit bias: Can empathy training
improve equity? Teaching Empathy in Healthcare: Building a New Core
Competency takes an innovative and comprehensive approach towards a
developed understanding of empathy in the clinical context. This
evidence-based book is set to become a classic text on the topic of
empathy in healthcare settings, and will appeal to a broad
readership of clinicians, educators, and researchers in clinical
medicine, neuroscience, behavioral health, and the social sciences,
leaders in educational and professional organizations, and anyone
interested in the healthcare services they utilize.
