In this assignment, I will be discussing and explaining the different roles of communication and interpersonal interaction within a health and social care setting. Communication is a way of interacting and getting a message, or several messages, across using different types of methods of communication. Giving and receiving a message between two or more people is also known as conveying information, whether it is by speech, behaviour, visuals, signals or writing. Communication is very important in a health and social care setting.

For example, the elderly need to be understood and looked after with great care, making sure they are being communicated with and assisted as expected. Communication is about understanding the information behind the emotions that take place. However, the word communication alone is all about transferring information.

Different personality types do have individual learning styles, so how one communicates with each person will differ. A person who has a verbal/linguistic learning style communicates through language, i.e. listening, reading, writing and speaking. I would communicate with this type of person through presentations, emails, text messaging, and talking on the phone. Someone who learns in this way excels when he/she is actively participating in group discussions. An interpersonal learning style is based on self-awareness, independence and time spent alone. A person who learns in this way would benefit from face-to-face communication, satisfying there need to interact with others. Some people benefit by communicating through faxes and emails. They have a need for independence and learn best on their own. This is evident of someone with and intrapersonal learning style. I would communicate with a person with this learning style through email, faxes, and letters. Since this person would learn more effectively alone, it might be easier for him/her to process information this way. There are also many different personality types to consider when interacting with a group. For example, a thinker is very analytical, thinking outside the box and using abstract...

... GEN/200 Lisa Tabarez Strategies Communication has existed since man set foot on this planet. Before there was language, people communicated by signs, sounds, and symbols. People need to communicate for survival purposes, such as trading, protection, and bonding. Communication has changed as the world evolves and technology changes. Nowadays it is essential to be able to communicate at home, school, and work.

During a presentation, the speaker might want to give the kinesthetic learner an activity involving their hands. A kinesthetic learner might be able to collaborate by building constructive activities, such as posters, sculptures, and boards. Another learning style is logical learning.

...THAT SUPPORTS YOUR POSITION. 1. What does “intercultural” communication mean to you? Intercultural communication to me is the way people of different cultures, races, ethnicities etc., all communicate. It is also how different cultures are understood by others.

...12, 2012 Communication Theory Communication is one way we all communicate with each other. In my house hold we have a 2 year old, disabled military vet who is 22, 54 year old with cancer, another military vet who is 25 and I. I live in West Virginia and yet I have a different culture than the people who live in my house. I am originally from upstate New York. I have never worked in the health care field but I do know what it is like to have to have good communication with people who are not only a different gender but come from different cultures as well. When it comes to gender there is always a different way of communicating. Men and women communicated very differently. When you add in culture differences into the gender aspect you can have some communication bumps that might come up along the way. I think our age and life experiences also play a part in the way we communicate with others. For example, in my house the 22 disabled vet has a more aggressive way of communicating. I am not sure if it is his age, gender or life experiences. Maybe a combination of all of them put together. My 2 year old son has a speech delay of 25% and is hard to understand a lot of the time. The 54 year old with cancer has a more introverted way of communicating with people. He often comes off as very calm, soft spoken and gentle. I myself have a more brutal honest approach when I communicate with people. I have noticed that people in the area that live in do not have this kind of communication...

It is an imparting or interchanging thoughts, opinions or information among people by speech, writing, or signs. There are different ways in which people communicate. The three types in which people communicate is verbal, nonverbal, and visual. (Nayab, 2011). Verbal communication is the one that we go through it daily with any kind of person we interact with.

...marked by a range of different communication behaviors. A large part of communicating is Listening. In order to communicate with the group properly you must listen to all of the individuals to get a full understanding of what they are saying so you can respond properly. Non-verbal behaviors are also just as important. For an example looking at people when they speak or nodding your head when you agree with something. Another important thing to remember when communicating is to make clear statements. If you want your group to preform a certain task it is important they clearly understand what the goal is. Groups also communicate with each other through deliberating and discussing. When in a group it is important for others to feel they are important in order for the group to be successful.

Effective communication extends the concept to require that transmitted content is received and understood by someone in the way that it was intended. The goals of effective communication include creating a common perception, changing behaviours and acquiring information. Effective communication begins with encoding, or the skill of relaying information in a clear, direct way that allows the receiver to correctly decode your message. Decoding is also a skill as it requires the receiver to ensure that they have properly heard and understood the message being sent. Considering the context of communication improves its effectiveness. Context takes into consideration the age, sex, religion, and intellectual abilities of the recipient. For example, when talking to a disabled child about the importance of brushing teeth, you should choose different, developmentally appropriate words and examples...
