Communication and Interpersonal Relationships

Communication and interpersonal
relationships
INTRODUCTION
 
Communication 
is a dynamic, 
reciprocal  
process 
of 
sending 
and
receiving 
messages.
Communication 
is 
more
 
than the act 
of  
talking 
and 
listening.
From 
the 
first 
cry of a  newborn 
to 
the whisper of a 
person 
who is
dying, 
the primary 
purpose 
of a  
communication 
is 
to 
share
information 
and  
obtain     
 
a    
 
response.
People 
use  communication 
to 
meet 
their 
physical,  
psychosocial,
emotional and 
spiritual
 
needs

INTRAPERSONAL
 
COMMUNICATION
It is conscious 
internal 
dialogue, 
sometimes
known 
as 
self-talk. 
It 
is language 
use or 
thought
internal 
to 
the 
communicator. 
The individual  
becomes 
his or 
her own sender
and 
receiver,  
providing 
feedback
 
to 
him or
herself 
in 
an  
ongoing 
internal process. 
It 
can 
be 
useful 
to  
envision 
intrapersonal
communication 
occurring  in 
the mind of the
individual 
in 
a model which  
contains 
a 
sender,
receiver 
and 
feedback
 
loop.
INTERPERSONAL
 
COMMUNICATION
It is 
communication between 
two 
or 
more
people.
Face 
to 
Face 
conversation 
between 
two
people 
is the 
most 
frequent 
form 
of
interpersonal
 
communication.
Nurses 
use 
interpersonal 
communication
to 
gather 
information 
during 
assessment,
to 
teach 
about 
health 
issues 
to 
explain
care 
and 
to 
provide 
comfort 
and
 
support.
GROUP
 
COMMUNICATION
It is 
interaction 
that 
occurs 
among 
several
people.
Small 
group 
communication 
occurs 
when
you 
engage 
in 
an 
exchange 
of 
ideas 
with
two 
or 
more 
individuals 
at 
the 
same
 
time.
PUBLIC
 
SPEAKING
It
 
is
 
a
 
unique
 
form
 
of

THE 
COMMUNICATION
 
PROCESS
 
Communication requires 
a 
sender, 
a 
message, 
a
receiver 
and a 
response 
or
 
feedback.
Communication 
is a 
two-way 
process 
involving
the 
sending and 
the 
receiving of 
a 
message.
Because 
the 
intent 
of 
communication 
is 
to 
elicit
a 
response 
the 
process 
of 
ongoing; 
the 
receiver
of 
the 
message then 
becomes 
the 
sender of 
a
response, and 
the 
original sender then 
becomes
the
 
receiver.

THERAPEUTIC 
COMMUNICATION
Therapeutic communication 
means 
that
nurses 
use 
their 
communication 
in such 
a
way 
that 
it 
will 
be 
benefit 
to 
their
 
patient.
Therapeutic communication 
differs 
from
normal 
communication 
in 
that 
it 
introduces
an 
element 
of 
“empathy’’ into 
what 
can 
be
traumatic 
experience 
for 
the 
patient 
and 
also
the 
patient 
are 
made 
to 
feel
 
validated.

Interpersonal
 relationship
An 
interpersonal relationship 
is 
a 
strong 
deep
or close 
association 
/ 
acquaintance between
two

health 
care
team

must work 
in 
co-operation 
and
harmony 
for  
the 
care 
of the 
patient. 
This 
co-operation 
and  
harmony 
depends upon
the IPR 
that is  
maintained 
among

health  
care
 
team.

happiness  
and
 
love.
All 
persons, 
at
 
sometime in their 
lives 
will be  
confronted 
by

and 
pain.
The 
quality 
and 
quantity 
of 
nursing 
care 
delivered 
to  
an 
ill human
being is 
greatly 
influenced by 
nurse’s  
perception 
of the
 
client.
The

spiritual 
encounters 
as

Mid-range 
theory 
of
 
IPR
Hildegard 
Peplau’s 
(1952:1997) 
mid-range 
theory 
of  
interpersonal 
relationships 
is
considered 
an essential 
theory  
frame 
work 
for 
the 
study 
of 
interpersonal
relationships.
The 
model 
describes how 
the 
nurse-client relationship 
can  
facilitate 
the
identification and accomplishments of  
therapeutic goals 
top 
enhance client and
family
 
well-being.
In 
today’s 
health 
care 
environment 
nurse-client relationships  
are 
of short 
duration
concise 
and 
effective. 
Despite
 
the
brevity 
of 
the 
relationship, 
Peplau’s 
basic
 
principles
partnership 
and terminating 
a 
relationship remain
 
relevant.
Peplau’s 
frame

for 
interpersonal

is  
applicable 
to 
all
areas 
of
 
nursing.
Major

of
studying 
nursing 
as an

Nursing 
is an 
interpersonal process because 
it 
involves  
interaction
 
between
 
two
or 
more
 
individuals with 
a  
common
 
goal.
The 
attainment 
of 
goal 
is 
achieved through 
the 
use 
of a  
series 
of 
steps 
following
a 
series

The 
nurse

both

process.

Phases 
of 
interpersonal
relationship
The 
nurse-client 
relation 
is 
therapeutic 
not 
social in  
nature.
It 
is 
always 
client centred 
and 
goal
 directed.
It 
is 
objective 
rather 
than 
subjective. 
The 
intent 
of a  
professional
relationship 
is 
for 
client 
behaviour
 
to  
change.
It 
is 
a 
limited relationship, 
with the 
goal 
of 
helping  
the 
client 
find
more 
satisfying behaviour 
patterns  
and 
coping 
strategies 
and
increase self
 
worth.
It 
is not 
for 
mutual
 satisfaction.

It is a limited relationship, with the goal of helping the client find more satisfying behaviour patterns increase self worth. It is not for mutual satisfaction. and coping strategies and

  39. Phases of interpersonal relationship (cont.) Peplau s developmental stages parallel to the nursingprocess. The orientation phase assessment phase of the nursingprocess. The identification component of the working phase corresponds to the planning phase, where as the exploitation implementation phase. The final resolution phase of the relationship corresponds to the evaluation phase of the nursing process. correlates with the phase parallels the

  40. Pre interaction phase The pre interaction phase is the only one in which the client does not directly participate. Awareness of professional goal is important. The preinteraction phase occurs before you meet the client. In this phase you will gather information about the client. In this phase, the nurse and client do not have direct communication. First phase in Peplau s theory is orientation phase.

  41. Orientation phase The nurse enters the relationship in the Stranger role and begins the process of developing trust by providing the client with basic information about the nurse and essential information about the purpose, nature, and time available for the relationship. It is also referred to as the introductory or the prehelping phase is important because it sets the tone for the rest of the relationship.

  42. Orientation phase (cont.) It begins when you meet the client. The goal in this phase is and trust. This phase followed by an initial exchange of information. During this phase communication occurs. to establish rapport begins with introductions, verbal and nonverbal

  43. Working phase / identification phase It is the planning phase. The conversation in the working phase turns active problem solving related to assess health care needs. Clients are able to discuss deeper, more difficult issues and experiment with new role and actions.

  44. Working phase/ identification phase (cont.) Working phase focuses on self direction and self management to whatever extent is possible in promoting the clients health and well-being.

Nurse aids the patient in exploiting all avenues of help and progress made towards the final step.

  46. Termination phase In the termination phase, the nurse and client evaluate the client s responses to treatment, and explore the meaning of the relationship and what goals have been achieved. Nurses need to be sufficiently aware of their own feelings so that they may use them constructively without imposing them on the client. Patient drifts away and breaks bond with nurse and healthier emotional balance is demonstrated and both become mature individuals.

  47. Termination phase (cont.) The termination phase is the conclusion of the relationship, whether at the end of the nurse s shift or the unit, facility or discharge from service. If communication has been effective, the termination phase prepares the nurse and interactions on the client s client for future

  48. Interpersonal theory and nursing process Both are sequential and focus on therapeutic relationship. Both use problem solving techniques for the nurse and patient to collaborate on, with the end purpose of meeting the patient needs.

  49. ASSESSMENT Data (Continuous). May not be a felt need. ORIENTATION Non collection Felt need.
