It has been said that communication is everything. I can think of no other arena than healthcare where this is more important to do effectively. Nurses and physicians are not taught effective communication in school. There are many barriers to effective communication in healthcare.
Isn’t it cool that there is a tool called Medical Improv that helps nurses and physicians and others on the healthcare team learn how to hone this skill and actually have fun doing it? Have you heard of this? What if you could learn to communicate more effectively with your co-workers and actually have fun doing it? It’s a win-win; especially for patient outcomes.
Tune in to today’s Divine Downloads episode to see how Registered Nurse Beth Boynton got into improv and how it is helping improve patient outcomes and enjoyment of healthcare staff.
