Telling a patient that the outcome of his illness is not good, or even hopeless, requires sensitivity and the ability to communicate with him in the setting of a hospital which is an unnatural environment divorced from family and friends. It is a task which must be taught and learned by doctors and nurses.
告知患者其病情预后不佳,甚至毫无希望,这需要具备敏感性,以及在医院这种脱离家人和朋友的非自然环境中与患者沟通的能力。这是一项医生和护士必须学习掌握的任务。
