Communications and Stakeholder Lead

COVID-19 has impacted the way in which health and care professionals communicate.  Several resources focusing on compassionate and effective communication skills have been added to the Learning Hub.  These resources support difficult conversations remotely with relatives and within a clinical setting both with patients and in relaying key transfer information to other colleagues.

The resources shared are relevant to health and care professionals, clinicians, specifically those working with an intensive care unit setting and clinicians caring for older adults experiencing delirium.
