Product Description

Product Description
This handbook will help professionals to apply practical counselling principles to healthcare situations in a South African context. Given the shortage of qualified counsellors and other health professionals in South Africa, healthcare workers without specialist knowledge are often called upon to counsel clients. There is no one-size-fits-all solution for many of the issues discussed. However, this handbook will sensitize readers, so that they can design an appropriate counselling intervention that is helpful to clients and their families. The handbook comprises three sections. Section one outlines essential principles of communication useful in most interactions between the health professional and the client. Section two describes basic generic principles of counselling.The focus falls on the development and practice of skills. Section three describes the application of counselling skills to specific situations in a medical setting, such as talking about treatment options, delivering bad news, and helping with adherence to antiretroviral treatment. The emphasis throughout is on the practical application of theory. The features include: tips which describe briefly how to deal with the issue under discussion; and common pitfalls to avoid which highlight the most frequent errors made in dealing with the issue in question.
