Target Audience
Any clinician directly involved in providing healthcare, whether or not specifically
in critical care, can benefit from enhancing his/her skills in resolving conflict.
Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to:
• describe and explain at least ten specific skills and strategies for
communicating in a setting of significant conflict;
• explain how and when each such skill or strategy is best used;
• gain practice in conflict resolution skills, so that they come readily into use
when needed.
ATS’s ground-breaking 2015 Policy Statement on potentially inappropriate
treatments in critical care observes that “conflicts typically develop and worsen
over time as communication breaks down and parties become entrenched in
their positions,” hence emphasizes the need for “increased efforts to teach
clinicians end of life communication skills, including conflict resolution skills.”
This course, a compact version of a successful intensive 3-day training,
provides ATS’s first direct opportunity to meet that goal. Faculty will introduce a
number of skills, beyond ordinary clinical communication skills, specifically
attuned to address conflict. Participants will practice those skills in realistic
scenarios followed by extensive debriefing.
