explain how individual and environmental factors can be optimised to facilitate communication
demonstrate effective communication skills in the delivery of ‘bad’ or unexpected news
identify barriers to effective communication and apply strategies to optimise communication in specific situations (with patients and colleagues)
identify individual areas for improvement to help develop and justify a personalised action plan
