Communication in Health Organizations explores the communication processes, issues, and concepts that constitute health care organizing, specifically focusing on the interactions in organizational contexts that influence the lives of patients, health professionals, and other members of health institutions. This book integrates scholarship from communication, medicine, nursing, public health, and allied health to provide a comprehensive review of the research literature.
This book uses a systems approach of organizations and communication to enhance reader understanding of the discursive complexities and contingences present in health settings. You will gain greater familiarity with how health institutions function communicatively, and why the people who work in health professions interact as they do. The text also provides you with multiple opportunities to analyze communication occurring in organizational contexts and apply communication skills to personal experiences. This knowledge may improve your own communication as a patient, employee, or consumer. Further, by understanding and applying book concepts, you can enhance communication in health organizations and, ultimately, benefit health care delivery.
Communication in Health Organizations offers students, researchers, and health practitioners with a unique multi-disciplinary perspective that invites stimulating reflection, discussion, and application of communication issues affecting today's health system.
