Patients value communication in nursing care, but some experience loneliness and unmet needs. Improving nurse-patient communication can enhance recovery and well-being, especially for vulnerable groups.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Patient Experience
  • Healthcare Communication

Context:

  • Patient-centered care emphasizes communication.
  • Understanding patient communication needs is crucial for effective nursing.
  • Healthcare settings must address communication deficits.

Purpose:

  • To survey patient opinions on communication needs in nursing and recovery.
  • To identify deficits in communication and areas for improvement.
  • To explore how patient demographics and health status influence communication needs.

Summary:

  • Most patients view communication as vital for nursing and recovery, desiring information and emotional support.
  • While many patients feel their communication needs are met, a minority experiences solitude and seeks help with coping and social integration.

  • Younger patients, women, and those severely ill or in pain/distress express greater communication needs, particularly regarding feelings and fears.
  • Frequent, long-term, or immobile patients may be less convinced of healthcare provider understanding; reduced mobility correlates with less expressed interest in communication.
  • Significant variations in nurse-patient relationship quality exist between clinics, impacting nursing quality and patient well-being.

    • Impact:

    • Highlights the importance of addressing patient communication needs for improved healthcare outcomes.
    • Identifies specific patient groups (e.g., younger, female, severely ill) requiring tailored communication strategies.
    • Underscores the need for inter-clinic quality improvement initiatives focused on nurse-patient relationships and communication.
    • Provides insights for enhancing nursing practice and patient support systems to mitigate loneliness and improve social integration.
