Techniques of therapeutic communication I: Active Listening, Sharing Observations, Validation, and Using Touch

The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.

Techniques of Therapeutic Communication II: Focusing, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing

8.0K
Focusing involves centering a conversation on a message's critical elements or concepts. Focusing is valuable if the talk is vague or patients begin to repeat themselves. Sometimes, when patients are asked about their symptoms, they may go off-topic and try to tell their entire life story. Respectfully, the nurse should bring the conversation back into focus.
This therapeutic technique can also be used when a patient brings up pertinent information during a health-related conversation. The...

    Area of Science:

    • Neonatal care
    • Maternal mental health
    • Psychosocial support

    Background:

    • Mothers of infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) frequently experience depression.
    • Accessing mental health services can be challenging for these mothers.
    • There is a need for accessible, point-of-care emotional support delivered by trusted professionals.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the content of Listening Visits, a nurse-delivered intervention for depressed mothers in the NICU.
    • To gain insight into the specific concerns and experiences of mothers during these support sessions.
    • To understand the qualitative aspects of a nurse-delivered depression intervention in the NICU setting.

    Main Methods:

    • Secondary qualitative case analysis of recorded Listening Visits sessions.
    • Analysis focused on four mothers with depression (Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale score ≥ 12).
    • Participants varied in socioeconomic factors and infant illness severity.

    Main Results:

    • Mothers frequently discussed a common concern: a lack of understanding from family and friends regarding the NICU experience.
    • Similar concerns and experiences were voiced by mothers at comparable points across the six Listening Visit sessions.
    • The intervention provided a platform for mothers to express their unique challenges.

    Conclusions:

    • Listening Visits offer a valuable method for bedside nurses to provide compassionate care to mothers with mild to moderate depression in the NICU.
    • The intervention facilitates the expression of mothers' concerns and experiences within the NICU environment.
    • Nurse-delivered listening interventions can address the psychosocial needs of mothers during infant hospitalization.
