Description
Ranjana’s written about the problematic lack of
good communication skills in healthcare professionals, highlighting how
something so apparently simple can cause a serious lack of adequate care and
unnecessary complications, and can even have fatal consequences. She highlights
the types of problems that can occur through her own personal experience on
hospital wards. She foreshadows this problem growing as ageing Baby Boomers
greatly add to our elderly population. She is advocating that communication
skills be entrenched in healthcare education, and taken as seriously as the
latest medical science developments.
