Effective patient care encompasses all aspects of healthcare. Radiography is a people-orientated profession and requires proficiency in a wide variety of communication techniques, which is a key component of good patient care. The most skilled and proficient practitioner will become inept if effective communication, which accentuates patient care is not provided. | Description: | Book Chapter | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/11189/8135 | ISBN: | 978-0-7020-4613-1 | DOI: | https://books.google.co.za/books?hl=en&lr=&id=UZgeOgkut6wC&oi=fnd&pg=PP1&ots=I7hEsu2pJH&sig=WZHDm4tv_64XYNgf2AfqHEgBcqM&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false |
