Course Overview

This comprehensive course is designed to strengthen the communication, interpersonal, and professional skills of healthcare practitioners, including physicians, nurses, and clinical pharmacists, to enhance patient safety, care quality, and clinical effectiveness. Through 14 structured sessions, participants will develop the competencies needed to communicate confidently, collaborate effectively, and build meaningful therapeutic relationships with patients, families, and healthcare teams.

The curriculum explores the role of Emotional Intelligence (EI) in healthcare practice, emphasizing self-awareness, empathy, resilience, and professional judgment. It introduces internationally recognized communication frameworks, including the SPIKES protocol for delivering difficult news, the SBAR/ISBAR models for structured clinical communication and handovers, and Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques using the OARS approach to support patient engagement and behavior change. The course also addresses cultural, linguistic, and organizational barriers to effective communication, highlights strategies for reducing communication-related errors, and promotes multidisciplinary collaboration.
