Subject: question on patient communication skills trainings


Hello. I really enjoy being part of this list and having access not only
to some great minds and terrific resources, but participating in
networking that really supports our work.  This is the first time I have
reached out to the network. I am developing training curriculum that is
indirectly about patient communication skills, patient/physician
communication.  The training is for health and human service providers
on how they can better support their clients with HIV and Hepatitis C to
better communicators with their medical providers.
 
I am wondering if anyone has done this kind of training before or
trainings on the importance of patient/physician communication, or
building patient communications skills , what resources, activities,
powerpoints were effective. 
 
Many thanks!
Mindy Domb
