THERATEUTIC COMMUNICATION
? Incorporates verbal and non-verbal
? Listening to the client
? Understanding the client’s need
? Promoting clarification and insight about the client’s condition
? Eliminate options that indicate the use of poor therapeutic communication: The nurse
? tells the client what to do without regard to the client’s feelings (a “do this” response).
? asks a closed-ended question. ( response is one word.)
? seeks a reason for the client’s behavior
? implies disapproval of the client’s behavior
? Offers false reassurances
? Attempts to interpret the client’s behavior rather than allowing the client to verbalize his own
feelings
? Offers a response which focuses on the nurse, not the client.
? Look for responses that:
? Allow the client time to think and reflect
? Encourage the client to talk
? Encourage the client to describe a particular experience
? Reflect that the nurse has listened to the client, such as through paraphrasing the client’s response.
