Nurses play multiple roles to enhance effective care and better patient outcomes. One of the roles is to establish effective communication with other healthcare professionals. While physicians and other specialists perform critical complementary tasks in care delivery, nurses play an essential role in responding to the needs of individual patients. It helps other professionals fulfill their complementary roles in the care process (Fakhr-Movahedi et al., 2016). Nurses utilize both verbal and non-verbal means to exchange information with other healthcare professionals for interaction. Communication also helps in making sound clinical decisions that help patients access quality services. The collective insight into the care plan also helps to provide safe patient care (Ghiyasvandian, Zakerimoghadam, & Peyravi, 2015). In the provision of nursing care, the nurse also promotes effective communication with the patients. (435words)
