Module 3: Safe Communication in Medicine

Talking is not enough

Communication is one of the most effective instruments of patient safety – provided it is structured. Misunderstandings, loss of information and unspoken concerns are among the most common causes of avoidable treatment errors.

Aim of the webinar

This webinar provides tried-and-tested communication tools that enable information to be passed on clearly, completely and safely. You will learn how structured communication improves collaboration and fosters a safety culture in which every voice counts.

What to expect

  • Structured communication in everyday clinical practice
  • Designing effective briefings and debriefings
  • Speak Up – Listen Up: raising concerns and taking them seriously
  • Applying formal communication standards with confidence

Who the webinar is for

For physicians, nursing professionals and all healthcare staff who want to use communication as the key to greater patient safety and effective collaboration.
