SR Print(0) ID 1182527440 T1 Future Directions T2 Emotion in the Clinical Encounter YR 2021 FD 2021 PB McGraw Hill PP New York, NY SN 9781260464320 LK hemonc.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1182527440 RD 2024/04/19 AB The authors of this book come from a broad diversity of fields and have covered an equally wide range of topics on the impact of emotion in healthcare: both the impact it has on patients, and its impact on healthcare providers. We have highlighted the functions of emotions, the interaction of illness and emotion, and addressed the nuances of emotion in a variety of patient populations, in addition to covering many aspects of emotional intelligence. We have sought to address emotions in the culture of medicine, including the challenges of teaching emotion-relevant skills and the importance of achieving emotional wellness in trainees and practicing healthcare providers. We have described the many emotion-related interactions in healthcare, highlighted the numerous problems, obstacles, and benefits in addressing emotions, and have offered guidance and advice. The remaining question is: how will clinicians and trainees navigate tomorrow’s healthcare landscape while effectively addressing their patients’ emotions and managing their own?
