Description
Purpose: The purpose of this project is to demonstrate the benefits of therapeutic communication in a mental health clinic with an outcome to increase patient satisfaction of their care and improve patient-caregiver communication and relationship.
Background: The consequences of poor communication or non-therapeutic communication cannot be overemphasized; these can include non-adherence to treatment plan, reduced treatment compliance, higher psychological morbidity, dissatisfaction with care and poor patient-caregiver relationship. Patients’ perception of how they are being treated affects how they respond to treatment plans and medication regimens
Method: The project consisted of providing education on the principles of therapeutic communication to healthcare workers in an outpatient psychiatric clinic. Follow up materials on therapeutic communication principles were provided on a weekly basis for one month. A pre-survey questionnaire was given to patients before intervention and a post-survey questionnaire after intervention to determine patient satisfaction with care and degree of communication with healthcare workers. The Short Assessment of Patient Satisfaction (SAPS) and the Communication Assessment Tool-Team (CAT-T) were the instruments utilized in this project.
Finding: Patient satisfaction and communication with staff were statistically and significantly improved after education on therapeutic communication was given to staff.
Conclusion: Education on therapeutic communication is an effective intervention tool in improving patient’s satisfaction and communication with staff and health care team members in a psychiatric outpatient clinic.

Description
According to The Joint Commission, most sentinel events in healthcare can be attributed to errors in communication. Thousands of medical students in the United States lack adequate communication training. Current literature illustrated that communication skills training programs increase confidence and communication skills of medical students and residents. These programs vary in techniques, with many including lectures and role play exercises. This project aimed to improve outcomes at a forensic facility in Arizona by utilizing a student role play intervention and lecture. Outcomes were measured utilizing developed pre- and post-intervention surveys. The surveys included a validated tool which measured four communication skill categories. A convenience sample consisted of pre-medical interns who participated in the project. The small sample size (four) led to descriptive statistics utilization to provide preliminary data. Prior to the intervention, communication skill average scores were as follows: listening (15), giving and getting feedback (12), sending clear messages (13.75), and handling emotional interactions (11.5). Post-intervention, the average scores for the communication skills were as follows: listening (18.25), giving and getting feedback (13), sending clear messages (16), and handling emotional interactions (12.75). Average scores for each category showed an increase after the implementation of the intervention. The survey was completed for four (100%) of participants, and 75 percent of participants stated they felt more confident with utilizing communication skills in their internship. A communication skills training program can enhance communication skills of medical trainees by providing structured support. Further research is needed on effective techniques to train medical trainees.

Description
Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic government regulations and mandates have caused feelings of overload, isolation, anxiety, depression, and loneliness. This project aimed to evaluate the level of impact of social distancing and homestay mandates on seniors during the COVID-19 pandemic. The knowledge from the data guided the implementation of Information Communication Technology (ICT) as a focused intervention to address loneliness, social
isolation, and depression among seniors.
Methods: Quantitative reviews were employed to assess the impact of ICT on lonely seniors. A convenience sample of 5 seniors aged 65 and up from a local church congregating in worship center located in southwestern United States enrolled in this voluntary pre-and post-educational intervention project. Participants were informed of the confidentiality of the study and that the study had no known risks on participants. The participants willingly signed a consent for the
study. The attendees received two one-hour education sessions on how to use WhatsApp and Zoom as communication strategies. The pre-and post-loneliness scale scores were collected using the Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale as a tool. Results were compared before and after the educational intervention using a paired Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
Results: The results indicate significant reductions in reported loneliness from pre to post intervention (z = -2.02, p = 0.043). These results indicate that using ICT can help address loneliness in the seniors.
Conclusion: Implementing communication strategies such as WhatsApp and Zoom effectively addresses social isolation and loneliness in seniors. The data reveals that integrating electronic communication in the life of the seniors can manage the social isolation problem. Future nursing practices may benefit from the project's data to address loneliness in the seniors.

Description
Purpose: Understanding the factors impacting communication between residents and peer staff in peer-run residential substance abuse treatment programs. The purpose of this paper is to explore male survival behaviors and cultural norms such as no snitching that impede communication to prevent relapse. Methods: The sample was male residents accepted into a residential treatment facility in the southwestern United States. Stories of peer-staff’s personal struggles with the no snitching code videotaped and shown in group followed with a guided discussion of relapse triggers, communication, and behavior norms that impede treatment. An online confidential pre-post retrospective survey designed using the Drug Abstinence Self-Efficacy Scale. Results: Descriptive statistics run show Cronbach's alpha of 0.96. A two-tailed paired samples t-test was conducted to examine the Overall Confidence Pre-test and Post-test mean difference. The overall confidence post-test was not statistically significant, but it was clinically significant. Clinical significance evidenced by residents 3-point lower confidence post-intervention. Conclusions: How-to elicit behavior change is unique to every individual. The goal is behavior change to sustain recovery and better communication between clients and peer staff to prevent relapse.
