Developing Rapport
1. ACCEPTANCE : accepting response, acknowledging the patients
rights to hold their own views and feelings.
Example:
Patient says : I think I might have cancer, doctor. I feel so
tired, said the patient
Our expression :
Youre worried that tiredness might be caused by cancer
(restating)
or
I can understand that you want to get that check out (ligitimizing)
[stop] (Full stop, allow the patient to continue)
End summary : summarizing the session briefly and clarify the plan
So, just to recap, I think your diabetes has crept out of control a
little over the last year, probably because of the weight that you
have put on, but hopefully we will be able to get your sugar back
to a satisfactory level if you can get your weight down to where it
was before. I will find you the diet sheet that I mentioned and then
well see you in two months and see how well youre managing. Is
that a reasonable summary o what we have agreed?
Contracting : contracting about the next step for both patient and
doctor
So, I will dictate a letter to the specialist explaining the problem
and fax it later today. If the test is abnormal, I will phone you
before your appointment. Would you call me after your
appointment and tell me what dr Jones has said?
