    Study Notes

    NSE 101 - Week 12: Communication Theory - Interprofessional Communication

    • Communication is defined as the sharing of information, ideas, and feelings to achieve mutual understanding, involving a sender, recipient, and transaction.
    • Types of communication include verbal, nonverbal, and written.
    • Professional communication principles: formal tone, truthfulness, accuracy, clarity, conciseness, and comprehensiveness.
    • Tips for professional communication: introduce self fully with name and role/institution, address others formally but do not assume gender, use full sentences, and be clear.
    • Professional emails: use a clear and informative subject line, use a professional email greeting, introduce yourself, refer to attachments if needed, use full sentences, and include a signature block; proofread and avoid humor or exclamation.
    • Communication models:
      • Transmission model: one-way, sender-focused, receiver as end point, includes environmental and semantic noise.
      • Interaction model: a two-way process with message feedback and channels, including psychological and physical contexts.
      • Transaction model: a dynamic process where communicators create and shape social realities, involves co-creation of meaning, considering social, relational, and cultural contexts.

    Communication is Learned

    • Communication is a learned, negotiated, and dynamic process.
    • Western culture influences communication.
    • Learners should reflect on their own cultures, beliefs, and norms.
    • Communication is often socialized through language.

    Theoretical Approaches to Communication and Interviewing

    • Trauma-informed approach: assumes trauma, prioritizes safety, choice, control, and empowerment.
    • Relational inquiry approach: explores the interplay of human life, avoids focusing on the client on an individual level.
    • Anti-racist approach: challenges sustaining and maintaining differences based on race; aims to dismantle systemic bias.

    Interprofessional Communication

    • Interpersonal vs. interprofessional communication: Interpersonal involves individuals whose lives mutually influence each other; interprofessional occurs among members of a client care team.
    • Interprofessional communication and collaboration focus on effective teamwork among a client care team; optimizing client outcomes.
    • The National Interprofessional Competency Framework is crucial to successful interprofessional collaboration.

    Principles of Interprofessional Communication

    • Examples include disrespectful communication, failure to communicate concerns, unclear/incomplete communication, and ineffective conflict resolutions.

    Conflicts in an Interprofessional Environment

    • Healthcare professionals may have different perspectives and priorities, which can lead to conflicts. Conflicts typically arise when perspectives and priorities contradict.

    Conflict Management Strategies

    • Be open to different perspectives, engage in self-reflection, engage in respectful discussions, reflect on other perspectives, share your perspective and rationale, use a client-centered approach, and use an evidence-informed approach.

    Harassment and Communication

    • Effective interprofessional communication is essential to safe work environments in healthcare.
    • Harassment and bullying involve repetitive behavior, overt or covert actions, and power imbalances.

    ISBAR Communication Tool
