Glocal Academy
Context
What a doctor knows and how a doctor makes humane connections with patients, families and colleagues are essential for delivering best patient care. Clinical communications skills are essential for establishing humane connections with patients, families and colleagues.Traditionally, some medical curricula focused on factual knowledge and technical skills (clinical skills) components, marginalising clinical communication skills component. Doctors working in the 21st century healthcare are expected to be competent in clinical communication skills.
However, at present, there are very few institutes offering structured clinical communication skills training to undergraduate students. It is our considered view that clinicians are keen to hone in effective communication skills, but there is dearth of readily available structured training programmes.
To address this issue, we have established Glocal Academy in 2015. Our mission to empower healthcare professionals to become effective communicators.
Since its inception, Glocal Academy has been offering high quality evidence-based customised programmes in clinical communication skills for health care professionals of all disciplines worldwide.
