This book brings together frontline clinicians from diverse healthcare
fields—including Medicine, Intensive Care, Neurology, Geriatrics,
Oncology, Palliative Care, Nursing, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and
Veterinary Medicine—to share their insights, experiences, and
strategies for effective clinical communication. Drawing on research
and real-world practices, the author provides evidence-based and
practical recommendations for teaching, studying, and implementing
effective communication in healthcare. Special attention is given to
the role of cultural expectations, particularly in bilingual and
multicultural medical contexts. Using Hong Kong as a case study, the
book explores its unique integration of Western and Chinese values to
offer a comparative perspective applicable to other healthcare
settings worldwide. It argues for the development of a culturally
appropriate communication model, informed by clinicians’ insights,
to enhance therapeutic relationships and ensure patient safety. This
book is an essential resource for medical educators, healthcare
professionals, doctors and nurses in training, medical students,
health communication researchers, and scholars in applied linguistics
and related fields.
