Visual Communication Board – Bridge for Communication between Patient and Nurse

Journal Title: International Journal of Nursing & Midwifery Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

Nurses as healthcare professionals focus on serving needs of humanity. Nurses face difficulty while communicating and giving care to patients with impaired communication abilities or compromised communication status. Nursing personnel should look forward to ways of improving patient care by developing communication skills and technical skills to help patients in fulfillment of their needs leading to satisfaction of both the patient and the nurse. Also, hospital administration can enhance patient satisfaction by introducing visual communication board in care of patients with compromised communication. Visual communication board can serve as a bridge for communication between the patient and the nurse, if it is readily available and nurses possess skills to use it
