It is vital to have proper rapport and effective communication skills while providing care for any patient. In particular, special skills are required in listening. Listening as a concept to professionals has always been of interest to historical scholars such as Aristotle who discovered that listening differs from one person to the other. As a care giver, an important thing to remember is that people communicate without speaking all the time without knowing it themselves and it up to good listeners to observe and take note of such moments and information. Similarly, to sharpen on your listening skills consider the six major components of listening which are attention, avoiding judgement, reflecting, clarifying, summarising and sharing.
The challenge pointed out where different practitioners apply different guidelines for same conditions is a common challenge to everyone on the field. Sadly, as individuals, there is nothing much that can be done owing to guidelines published each day in different parts of the world. However, as organisations and governments there are procedures and frameworks set aside containing standard guidelines tried and tested by researchers. Organisations such as the FDA and CDC regulate some of these frameworks and databases that combine knowledge from various parts of the world. Technology is being applied daily in health digital infrastructure towards the management information. The goal of these projects are developed from the fact that to health care administrators, clinical practitioners, and health information technologists, the ability to provide patient diagnoses, care, and treatment are only effective when the data is effectively and efficiently available in legible formats and integrity standards. To read more about data stewardship standards, the works of researchers like Mikles et al. (2017) and Rosenbaum (2010) will provide more insight.
