Description
Communication skills are vital in all areas of medical practice, and none
more so than the highly charged arena of the Intensive Care Unit. Intensive
Care specialists are frequently called upon to communicate and negotiate
with patients, their families and surrogates, their physician, surgeon or
oncologist and a wide range of medical personnel including nursing staff
and junior doctors. Recognising this, the Australian and New Zealand
Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine assesses the communication skills of all
candidates undertaking the Fellowship examination. Medical decisions should
be based on clear ethical principles, thoughtful analysis of situations and
the formulation of appropriate strategies. 'Communication of the Intensive
Care Specialist' explains the need for an understanding of ethics,
introduces the fundamental principles of communication, and guides the
reader through a range of Case Studies which cover many of the situations
which may confront the ICU specialist.Written primarily for Intensive Care
trainees to help them improve their skills and to prepare for the Final
Fellowship examination, this book is an invaluable resource for all junior
doctors, and for those responsible for their training.
