Communication generally
important in nurse patient
interaction but verbal and non
verbal. Eye contact; provides
a channel for nurses to
connect with clients in a
manner that conveys genuine
concern and care. inner
feelings are often reflected
through one’s eyes.
Body language refers to
manufacturing of feelings or
thoughts by ways of body
gestures. It is a powerful
nonverbal communication
tool. Recognizing it helps
nurse understand her own and
the behaviour of the client
(Ref. Pg.133. psychiatric
nursing. Biological &
Behavioural concepts by
Deborah antai-Otong)
Facial expression, releves
internal feelings and
emotions. They convey a
number of feelings that are
reflected in client. Intense
massage are easier to asses
than subtle responses;
flat blunted or congruent
affect often masks feelings &
emotions.
The physical appearance such
as personal hygiene, posture,
dress and appropriateness of
the clothes, revels the clients
level of functioning,
confidence, self worth.
(Ref. Pg.133. Psychiatric
Nursing. Biological &
Behavioural concepts by
Deborah antai-Otong
Regardless of the formality or
length of relationship, each
nurse actively encourages the
patient to feel comfortable in
the relationship. An effective
communication is based on
the patient and the nurse
getting to know each other.
(Ref. Pg.99, Psychiatric
Nursing by Norman L.
Keltne, Lee Hilyard
Schwecke,Carol E. Bostom)
The nurse patient relationship
is not a social relationship.
Although the nurse might
relate informally with
patients, the maintance of
objectivity and goal-directness
is crucial. Patients particularly
those with a history of
unsatisfying relationships,
might misinterpret the nurse’s
interest and concern.

Nursing by Norman L.

Defense mechanism has two
                                                           aspects first; they keep
                                                           unwanted thoughts out of the

                                                           do this. Secondly, energy
                                                           cannot be contained
                                                           indefinitely therefore some
                                                           defense mechanism allows the
                                                           energy to be discharged as in
