Accepting patients needs for self-expression and seeking to teach skills
yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu


that will contributeto their well-being demonstrate respect and are

important parts of advocacy. The on- coming nurse needs to take

action to ensure that others are not prejudiced against the patient.
yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu


Humor can be appropriate within the privacy of a shift report but not
yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu


at the expense of respect for patients. Judging the off-going nurse in a

critical way will create conflict.

Attending is a technique that demonstrates the nurses commitment to
yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu


the relationship and reduces feelings of isolation. This technique shows
yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu


respect for the patient and demonstrates caring. Generalizations,
yu yu yu yu yu yu yu yu


probing, and false reassurances are non-therapeutic.
