AbstractBackgroundSex dialogue is one of the most critical and challenging topics between mothers and adolescents. The knowledge and skills of mothers in sex dialogue with their daughters are essential. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of group counseling based on communication skills on mothers through their sex dialogue with their daughters.MethodsA randomized controlled field trial was conducted on 168 couples of mothers and their daughters selected by the stratified matching method and randomly divided into two control and intervention groups. The mothers in the intervention group participated in a communication-based consultation in groups consisting of 6–12 people for 6–7 weekly sessions, each one lasting 60 min. The data collection tool was a Persian-translated questionnaire by Jaccard for sex dialogue between mother and daughter. The data were analyzed using Chi-square (χ2), ANOVA with repeated measures and modified post hoc Bonferroni tests.ResultsThere was a significant difference in the mean score of mother-daughter sex dialogue 1 week after intervention between the intervention (34.48 ± 8.74) and control (40.44 ± 9.49) groups (p = 0.001) and 1 month after the intervention between the intervention (30.41 ± 10.07) and control (42.47 ± 9.62) groups (p < 0.001).ConclusionThrough applying communication skills, an increase in mother-daughter sex dialogue frequency was observed after group counseling. Therefore, it is suggested to promote mother-daughter communication skills by accessing the mothers via schools, health centers and with the aid of midwifery counselors, midwives and other trained caretakers.

Online education is rapidly becoming the norm in degree-completion programs. Nursing educators must assure that empathetic communication with patients will not become a lost art.

Descriptive Statistical Analysis

Introduction: The approach, communication skills, and confidence of clinicians responsible for raising deceased organ donation may influence families’ donation decisions. The aim of this study was to increase the preparedness and confidence of intensive care clinicians allocated to work in a “designated requester” role. Design: We conducted a posttest evaluation of an innovative simulation-based training program. Simulation-based training enabled clinicians to rehearse the “balanced approach” to family donation conversations (FDCs) in the designated requester role. Professional actors played family members in simulated clinical settings using authentic scenarios, with video-assisted reflective debriefing. Participants completed an evaluation after the workshop. Simple descriptive statistical analysis and content analysis were performed. Results: Between January 2013 and July 2015, 25 workshops were undertaken with 86 participants; 82 (95.3%) returned evaluations. Respondents were registered practicing clinicians; over half (44/82; 53.7%) were intensivists. Most attended a single workshop. Evaluations were overwhelmingly positive with the majority rating workshops as outstanding (64/80; 80%). Scenario fidelity, competence of the actors, opportunity to practice and receive feedback on performance, and feedback from actors, both in and out of character, were particularly valued. Most (76/78; 97.4%) reported feeling more confident about their designated requester role. Discussion: Simulation-based communication training for the designated requester role in FDCs increased the knowledge and confidence of clinicians to raise the topic of donation.

Workplace Factors

Nurses interact with patients, colleagues and other health care professionals on a daily basis and this interaction is improved when nurses have good communication skills. Becoming more assertive can lead to increased respect and recognition as a person and as a nurse. This paper aims to gain more insights on nurses’ assertive communication at the workplace by reviewing current research on assertiveness and nursing. There is an abundance of studies to support the use of assertiveness skills in clinical settings. Although forms of assertive behaviour have been investigated in many situations, there is still insufficient empirical evidence with regard to the frequency and the use of assertiveness skills by nurses in clinical settings. Moreover, there is also a lack of research describing potential barriers to this, and it has been suggested that the factors in nurses’ work settings that promote or inhibit assertive behaviour need to be explored and identified. This paper will conclude with a discussion of a proposed study which will examine the level of assertiveness among nurses in Malaysia, the influence of workplace factors, the factors supporting the use of assertive behaviour and the factors that hinders the use of assertive behaviour.
