Of previous editions: '... breaks new ground in its readability ...
It is concise, wise, and firmly pragmatic'. British Medical Journal
'Since it was first published in 1994, Peter Tate's The Doctor's
Communication Handbook has been essential reading to improve GP
registrars' communication skills'. Practical Diabetes International
This bestselling title has established itself as the ultimate guide
to patient communication for all doctors, whatever their experience
and wherever they practice. Highly respected by many and acclaimed
for its light, conversational tone, this completely updated and
expanded eighth edition remains a key text for doctors at all
levels and in all settings, particularly candidates sitting for the
Membership of the Royal College of General Practitioners. Key
features: Unique and accessible approach to this vital and
frequently poorly practiced aspect of medicine Addresses the change
in practice where traditional doctor consultations are increasingly
being done by other health professionals, including nurse
practitioners and paramedics Reflects the dissolution of the
primary/secondary care boundary, and the increasing importance of
shared responsibility for patient communication in clinical and
social care Covers the new types of consultation including
telephone triage and virtual consultation and the associated risks
and benefits Retains all the features praised in previous editions
brevity, readability and humour As patients become participants,
doctors are increasingly adjusting to new roles and forms of
communication from orators and governors to confidants and
interpreters. The Doctor's Communication Handbook continues to
provide an invaluable 'one stop shop' to help students, practicing
doctors, nurses and other healthcare practitioners value and
improve their skills in this area.
