This course is designed to be of interest to the range of clinicians working in the secondary care environment, and they may also be of interest to managers.
The course aims to highlight the importance of effective team communication in demonstrating good professional practice, in supporting colleague wellbeing, and in reducing medicolegal risk.
Via a mix of presentation, case studies and small group discussion, the following will be explored:
- The range of professional guidance in relation to team communication
- The common barriers to effective team communication – personal, team and organisational
- The components of effective team communication
- The importance of defining and sharing information about team roles and boundaries
- The importance of supervision, training and induction
- Tips and tools to improve the effectiveness of team meetings, briefings, handovers and delegation
- The importance of soft skills in ensuring safe team interactions
At the end of this course delegates will feel better equipped to recognise and mitigate team communication risks within their own environment.
