ASSESSMENT TASK 2: DESCRIPTION
We can learn a lot about effective communication by observing the communication of others. The aim of this assessment task is to evaluate an authentic communication interaction in a healthcare setting, and using theories of communication, formulate strategies and recommendations to improve communication processes and outcomes.
Before commencing this assessment task, you are required to review the video case study available (see transcript) . Then, select one (1) of the characters in the scenario (choosing from either the Clinical Nurse, wearing the white shirt or Registered Nurse, wearing the blue shirt) and analyse their communication.
Based on your analysis, discuss the ways in which your selected character’s communication impacted on the unfolding scenario. Then, outline key strategies that your chosen character could adopt should they find themselves in a similar scenario in the future. You are expected to substantiate your analysis and strategies with contemporary literature.
