Phlebotomy is a medical procedure that is performed frequently in the blood collection activities of medical institutions. The procedure involves close interaction with different types of patients-some of whom are cooperative and others, who, for many reasons, are not (for example, patients who have a fear of needles). Blood extraction is an essential skill in several medical specialties, such as in laboratory sciences. Lesson planning in phlebotomy education is mainly focused on procedural skills, and very little attention is given towards teaching communication skills despite the close patient interaction in phlebotomy. In this paper, I propose a lesson plan for teaching communication skills to medical laboratory sciences and nursing students based on Gagne's instructional design. The training session included two main parts: training session using Gange's instructional design and at the end of the session, the participants were surveyed for the effectiveness of the training session. 17 participants were included in the study. Overall, the majority of the participants were highly satisfied with the effectiveness of the training session in teaching communication skills with all seven survey questions receiving a mean score of 4.58 on a Likert scale of 1-5. We demonstrated the effectiveness of Gange's instructional beyond theoretical lesson planning to teach communication skills through role-play in phlebotomy education.
采血是医疗机构中经常进行的一项医疗程序，涉及与不同类型的患者密切互动，有些患者很配合，而有些患者由于各种原因不配合（例如，有些患者害怕针头）。在一些医学专业中，如实验室科学，采血是一项基本技能。采血教育中的课程规划主要侧重于程序技能，尽管采血过程中与患者密切互动，但很少关注沟通技能的教学。在本文中，我根据加涅的教学设计，为医学实验室科学和护理专业的学生提出了一个沟通技能教学课程计划。培训课程包括两个主要部分：使用加涅教学设计的培训课程和课程结束时，对参与者进行培训课程效果的调查。共有 17 名参与者参加了这项研究。总的来说，大多数参与者对培训课程在教授沟通技能方面的有效性非常满意，七项调查问题的平均得分为 4.58（李克特量表的 1-5 分）。我们通过在采血教育中进行角色扮演，展示了加涅教学设计在教授沟通技能方面的有效性。
