About This Book

Healthcare Psychology and Communication Skills (Practical) is a hands-on manual designed for the BP108P practical component of the B.Pharm Semester I curriculum. Unlike a purely theoretical text, this is a performance course each of its eleven practicals guides students step by step through the communication techniques that define competent, compassionate pharmaceutical care.

Students practise structured frameworks including SPIKES for breaking difficult news, SBAR for clear inter-professional handovers, NURSE for responding to patient emotions, teach-back for confirming patient understanding, and the Gibbs reflective cycle for learning from every interaction. With role-play scenarios, observation checklists, and reflective exercises, the manual bridges the gap between knowing about communication and actually communicating well at the pharmacy counter and the bedside.
