Introduction
Strong collaborative partnerships between nurse-patient are supported by good
interpersonal communication skill. Sitting next to a patient when chatting will help boost
patient satisfaction level for a fleeting time. Effective communication techniques are
important to nurses, who face chaotic environments and complex clinical workflows almost
all the time (Kourkouta & Papathanasiou, 2014). The use of appropriate interpersonal
communication techniques by nurses in both professional and personal contexts are found to
alleviate tension, fostering well-being leading to the enhancement of quality of life.
Communication is the information transmission between a sender and a recipient. It used to
be where you just needed to think about how you spoke on paper or face-to-face.
Communication strategies are indeed the prototypes about how to share the information.
Therapeutic communication is a set of strategies, which offer priority to patients ' physical,
emotional and mental well-being. Nurses offer guidance and knowledge to patients, while
retaining a sense of detachment and objectivity to the practice (Registerednursing.org, 2020).
The communication strategies must be followed by a nurse are deliberate silence, making eye
contact with patient and accepting their emotion, acknowledge patients’ behavior and
encourage them by overt compliment, spending time with the patient, encouraging patient by
giving broad openings, listening to the patient carefully, seeking clarification to the speech of
the patient, asking smart questions to get a clear idea about the diseased condition, deep
observation, reflecting, confronting, voicing doubt and offering optimism as well as humor
(Registerednursing.org, 2020).
