Why good oral communication is important in care settings?

Good Oral Communication is essential

when used in Health Care settings as it is the easiest way to

communicate with others and ensure they understand everything they

may need to know. It enables colleagues to interact effectively and

productively, by sharing ideas and obtaining information. This may

be important when staff find themselves in hazardous situations or

when a patient becomes extremely ill. Oral Communication also helps

to form relationships, which is vital in Health Care as it comforts

the patient and builds up trust between themselves and their

carer.
