Being able to communicate effectively is an essential skill for all nurses. Communication in paediatric end of life care can be challenging for both the student and lecturer as it is a rare experience and challenging to teach. Innovative approaches to teaching communication skills such as role play, simulation and drama have been used; however there is a dearth of literature examining the use of drama in this specialist context. The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of a novel workshop in teaching transferable knowledge and skills in palliative, end of life and bereavement care communication to a convenience sample of first year pre-registration nursing students undertaking clinical skills training at a UK university. Qualitative and quantitative data were obtained from pre and post intervention questionnaires exploring student's perception of communication skills. Qualitative data were analysed thematically and quantitative data presented as standard descriptive statistics. The novel communication workshop facilitated students' exploration of how good and poor communication looks and feels and introduced aids to inform communication in clinical practice. Exposure to different learning approaches provided opportunities to both gain confidence in engaging in new learning activities and develop knowledge and skills through purposeful engagement.
能够进行有效的沟通是所有护士的基本技能。在儿科临终关怀中进行沟通对于学生和讲师来说都是一项具有挑战性的任务，因为这是一种罕见的体验，且难以教授。人们已经采用了角色扮演、模拟和戏剧等创新方法来教授沟通技巧；然而，在这个专业领域，关于戏剧应用的文献却很少。本研究的目的是探索一种新颖的工作坊在向英国大学进行临床技能培训的一年级注册护士学生便利样本中教授可转移的姑息治疗、临终关怀和丧亲沟通知识和技能方面的有效性。通过干预前后调查问卷获得定性和定量数据，探讨学生对沟通技巧的看法。定性数据进行主题分析，定量数据以标准描述性统计呈现。新颖的沟通工作坊使学生能够探索良好和不良沟通的外观和感觉，并介绍了在临床实践中进行沟通的辅助工具。接触不同的学习方法为学生提供了机会，既可以增强他们对参与新学习活动的信心，又可以通过有目的的参与来发展知识和技能。
