Course Aims:

•    Provide a grounding in the theories and techniques that underpin an effective approach to difficult conversations

•    Formulate psychologically the interpersonal dilemmas faced by staff, patients and families

•    Consider the impact of the setting in which conversations take place while becoming aware of our own stance as integral to a good conversation

•    Practice having difficult conversations and facilitating case-discussion groups. This practice will take as its material real cases from the group.
