Abstract:
:Communication skills are the cornerstone of the patient-provider relationship in cancer care. Lack of these skills can diminish patient disclosure, increase patient anxiety, and decrease satisfaction with care. The purpose of this article is to evaluate the literature regarding the efficacy and outcomes of communication skills training programs for healthcare providers in oncology. Using four databases, the author found 21 research articles about communication skills training programs for healthcare providers in oncology. The majority of published studies involved training programs for experienced clinicians (i.e., physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants) in oncology care. Programs varied in length from 18-105 hours and evaluated communication skills, patient satisfaction and anxiety, and provider confidence and perceived stress. Specific communication skills and provider confidence were statistically improved in 19 of 21 studies. Follow-up data showed maintenance of some skills and attrition of others. Longer programs with consolidation workshops are seen as more effective.
