We explore the use of language and consider the importance of listening to patients during the telephone conversation. Delegates will learn how to prevent negative signals from creeping into conversations. The workshop provides the opportunity to discuss tools and techniques which work in other practices and we encourage delegates to share their positive experiences. During the afternoon session we use practical exercises to help delegates to plan for incoming and outgoing telephone calls. Practice sessions will help to reinforce delegates learning particularly in terms of questioning and listening skills. What should I expect to gain from the day? The workshop will provide delegates with a framework for handling telephone calls effectively. • The ability to analyse the language and common phrases which are used on the telephone. • Improved communication skills.
