title: "How to get along with doctors and other health professionals".
abstract: All nurses will from time to time find themselves in negative interactions with doctors and other healthcare professionals. By using positive communication techniques the nurse can promote healthy interpersonal interactions and a positive atmosphere. By selecting responses rather than responding spontaneously difficult situations can be managed and a professional environment maintained.
