I really appreciate the concrete, clear examples of changes that can be implemented.

I also planning to recommend this course and share some of the examples with my co-workers and leadership team.

This course was a great reminder for how we communicate verbally and in written form with our patients. I also think that as a therapist, we can really help our patients in decoding/interpreting information from doctors and other healthcare workers - because more often than not, they do not understand their diagnosis, instructions from the doctor, etc. We can play a huge role in breaking down the barriers!

This really was a very interesting and eye opening course. I attended a lunch lecture 25 years ago or so when I worked at TIRR in Houston so I remember and have incorporated these skills into my therapeutic interactions and written home programs. I really enjoyed the course and this was a great review. I currently live and work in a small rural town and fine this review very helpful.
