Will I practise nursing communication?
Communication is a core part of study, including clear exchanges in nursing work.
What this means for your study decision
HLTENN036, Apply communication skills in nursing practice, is included in the core. Communication therefore has a named place in the qualification rather than being left entirely to incidental experience.
Ask how students practise and receive feedback on nursing communication. Keep the discussion focused on the provider’s teaching and assessment arrangements; this guide does not prescribe a script for a clinical situation.
