NRSG-1020Communication Seminar 2: Therapeutic Communication
This course expands on the learning acquired in CS1. The
focus on self-awareness continues with a shift to client-centred, goal-directed
therapeutic communication. Skills in therapeutic communication are practiced with
application to common and challenging clinical situations. Difficult conversations,
conflict management, and challenges in group dynamics are addressed.
Self-awareness, being “in-relation”, collaborative knowledge development, and
attending to context are core relational skills in this course.
