‘Communication in Healthcare’ by Anne Marie Morse is useful for patients and healthcare students.

I was particularly intrigued by the narrative case studies.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for the e-ARC.

Working in healthcare for over 20 years, I was really looking forward to reading Communication in Healthcare by Anne Marie Morse. I am always keen to learn new things and was hoping this book would add to my current knowledge. Alas, I am sorry to say I did not gain anything from reading this book. In fact, I would go so far as to say, Communication in Healthcare was a disappointment. Ann Marie Morse lost all credibility for me when she referred to herself as the "Dr on TikTok". From there, it was all downhill. This book was incredibly basic at best, and a self-congratulatory project at worst. It may appeal to students within healthcare or patients. But, I do not feel it contributed to the current communication research.

Thank you @forbesbooks and @netgalley for an eARC of Communication in Healthcare by Anne Marie Morse. Opinions are my own.

A very basic informative read that could be useful in improving healthcare communications for patients, families and professionals. Scenario presentations were the most informative and interesting sections.
