SCIENTIFIC RATIONALE:
The Eusoma 2020 Breast Centre requirements stated “Healthcare Professionals who deal with cancer patients and their families are recommended to have training in and knowledge about communication skills”.
Communications skills have to be an essential part of the training of Health Professionals dealing with breast cancer, as good communications skills can bring benefits both to patients’ satisfaction and well- being of specialists.
This first Eusoma educational programme aims at helping Health Professionals to improve their communications methods and the interaction with the patients in the main steps of the patient pathway within the Breast Centre.
