Overcoming Patient-Provider Communication Barriers in Health Care Settings
A growing number of practical tools and strategies to deal with the many difficult and dangerous communication barriers that crop up in health care settings are becoming available. Unfortunately, these tools are still far too rarely used to their maximum benefit in situations across the broad continuum of health care settings. The CCCF is making an effort both to pilot the use of these tools in a variety of settings and to spread information about them as widely as possible. The materials in this section are designed to further these efforts.
