\u201cEach patient ought to feel somewhat the better
\nafter the physician’s visit, irrespective of the nature of the illness\u201d<\/em>
\nWarfield Theobald Longcope<\/strong><\/div>\n

The past century has seen scientific and technological advancements in many fields, and medicine is no exception. We have sophisticated diagnostic tools, therapies, preventive measures, and knowledge is rapidly expanding: this should be the golden age of medicine. Unfortunately, especially with the challenging chronic diseases, results of this huge technological effort have been disappointing.<\/p>\n

One reason is that the relationship between doctors and patients, always considered an essential part of the cure, is deteriorating.<\/p>\n

In today’s disease-centered model, the Hippocratic covenant between doctor and patient has disappeared: the physician deals directly with the disease, leaving the patient aside. The patient is seen as \u00a0a \u201cmalfunctioning organ\u201d more than a suffering person.
\nThis attitude, together with the hyper-specialization, lack of interest in communication, long working hours and never-ending paperwork, has deprived doctors of their humanity. Losing the emotional connection, the physician is becoming a technician, unable to handle suffering.<\/p>\n

This unhealthy relationship is sadly reflected in the ever-increasing doctor-patient conflicts, and the sudden increase in malpractice suits.<\/p>\n

Effective communication is essential to patient care; it improves prognosis, by increasing patients\u2019 compliance and inducing positive expectations. It\u00a0affects patients’ outcomes and quality of life and decreases doctors\u2019 burnout; lowers healthcare costs, conflicts and malpractice suits. Relational skills should no longer be considered accessories, but fundamentals of the medical profes\u00adsion.<\/p>\n

As Hippocrates said \u201cIt’s far more important to know what person has the disease than what disease the person has\u201d. After 2500 years, his teaching couldn\u2019t be truer: despite all technological advances, human nature has not changed and the fundamental tenets of medicine remain \u201cThe touch, the remedy, the word\u201d.<\/p>\n

The strategic model applies perfectly to the healthcare setting.
\nPrograms are directed to all healthcare professions (physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, and other healthcare workers):<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Communicate effectively with patients and relatives<\/li>\n
  • Increasing compliance<\/li>\n
  • Communication as a cure in itself<\/li>\n
  • Preventing conflicts and decreasing malpractice suits<\/li>\n
  • Managing conflicts with coworkers<\/li>\n
  • Preventing burnout syndrome<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
