Impact of Communication on Malpractice Litigation Communication impacts the occurrence of malpractice litigation. The patient expects complete transparency when engaging a physician (Scott, 2018). Hence, the lack of communication prompts lawsuits, which also take time to resolve over communication challenges. Malpractice litigation is furthered by poor communication among physicians and with patients but can reduce if clear, timely, and sufficient details are availed. Poor communication increases the occurrence of malpractice litigation. The patient resorts to litigation to get answers and enforce accountability when the physician is unresponsive (Scott, 2019). Equally, not disclosing the full details of a procedure is a litigation threat. The physician is expected to give all the relevant facts to the patient and timely. Without thorough information, the physician will be accused of fraud and unprofessional conduct. The patient’s anger, especially when the procedure fails, prompts litigation when the physician does not respond adequately. Lack of clear, timely, and honest communications causes litigation. The patient’s case will also suffer if communication is insufficient. Cattabiani (2018) notes that poor documentation of the incident and blame-trading drag the case.…

Nonverbal Communication Misunderstanding Communication is an essential part of every human being as it is through communication one gives their opinions, interacts with others, and expresses his or her feelings. I believe that communication is a complex process that goes beyond the sending and receiving of messages and signals, then sending feedback (Adler et al., 2016). Communication, either in the verbal or nonverbal state, should be carefully encoded to ensure that the receiver decoding the sent message does not misunderstand it. In conversation, most of the time, nonverbal communication is misunderstood by people. This is due to its evolution and change of meaning from what it was known for in the past. When using none verbal cues like facial expressions, dress code, body postures, and other signs and signals or gestures, it is essential to ensure that as the sender and the receiver share the same meaning of that cue. The misunderstanding of nonverbal communication is contributed to differences in culture, geographical factors, and age difference (Burgoon et al., 2016). For example, the teenagers of nowadays are using emojis in…

Self-monitoring in Communication The linear model of communication is faced with challenges that can only be beaten by a speaker’s ability to employ efficient figures of speech. The linear model of communication gives the speaker a priority over the audience in that the speaker does not receive the response directly from the audience. Complains and compliments from the audience in a linear model are only received indirectly, and in most of the cases, the speaker is not obliged to consider the reactions. Self-monitoring can be defined in the context of communication as a personal trait that explains the efficiency by which one controls and regulates the communication behavior for effective communication. Self-monitors are always concerned with the perception of the audience towards them. In the linear model of communication, self-monitoring aims at improving the speaker’s efficiency in passing the intended information accurately to a willing and concentrative audience.
