During my therapeutic nurse-patient interaction, I realized that I need more patience than I
think and still need to listen more. I learned that speaking therapeutically is much harder than
just talking with patients. Contrary to what I thought, A.N was very co-operative which made me
more comfortable talking.
Talking to A.N has helped me demonstrate what I learned about therapeutic
communication and nurse-patient relationship, because it is a base for providing behavioral
change in mental health patients. To sum it all, I have learnt that my response as a nurse goes a
long way to produce a therapeutic outcome thereby achieving optimal health.
