6: Management of Difficult Patients and Families
Room: Wicklow Hall 1
Chair: Pedro Berjano, Milano, Italy Interaction with angry or reluctant patients and relatives are one of the most undesired experiences a clinician faces in his professional live. The goal of this session is to explore the topic of ‘difficult people’ in the medical environment including the drivers of their behaviour, the impact they have on doctors and tactics for moving forward. Stephen McGuire is a professional in medical education and doctor-patient communication and will provide his expertise to analyze the causes, consequences and strategies to reduce physician’s stress and improve communication. John O’Dowd and Pedro Berjano are spine surgeons with more than 20 years of experience and a career-long interest in improving the communication with their colleagues and patients and will interact with Stephen to facilitate the achievement of the goals of the session. Introduction: Difficult people: harder work, greater stress and poorer results? What do we mean by ‘difficult’ people? How do ‘difficult’ people make us feel? What makes people ‘difficult’?
Is there a strategy to move forward with ‘difficult’ people? Questions and observations from the audience |
