Vous êtes confronté à des conflits de personnel dans un établissement de santé. Comment pouvez-vous combler efficacement les lacunes en matière de communication ?

There can be a lot of misunderstandings in a healthcare setting. Take for example when you are in a situation where you have two double bookings between two therapists and you have only one technician able to help out. There is a very high possibility that the tech would have trouble remembering what exercises to give to the patient if she is having to assist with two or more of those patients during the session. Then the technician starts getting overwhelmed from all the information and then lashes out the clinicians. This story has happened in my clinical experience, we then all gathered together when time permitted to discuss the issue at hand and work on compromising for one another to create a healthy environment.

Thealthcare Communications hase very diverse needs and varies from community to community and individual to individual to individual. However a few commonalities can be addressed holistically to minimize staff-related issues and improve conflict resolutions. The top three of these are 1. Clear Communication of Job roles and Responsibilities 2. Establishing Workplace hierarchies and channels of Comand and Channels of Reporting 3. Training of Soft Skills and Communication Skills along with workplace ethics and code of conduct There are many more to do to implement these three strategies at ground level actively.

While there are a number of steps required for ensuring effective and bi-directional communications, one of the most important steps is establishing a baseline of what communications tools and approaches would work best with your teams. This could involve a number of different approaches

As the CEO of the Global Neurosurgical Alliance, a nonprofit with over 550 researchers from diverse cultural backgrounds, understanding the underlying issues in managing staff conflicts is crucial. This involves actively listening to all parties without bias. By creating an open forum for discussion, we allow team members to express their concerns and frustrations, which is critical in identifying communication gaps and misunderstandings. Understanding the root causes helps us develop solutions that address these specific issues and foster a more cohesive working environment.

In a recent collaborative project, one researcher felt their contributions were overlooked. By actively listening and acknowledging their input, we were able to integrate their ideas more effectively, resulting in a more inclusive and successful project outcome.

In the high-pressure world of healthcare, conflicts among staff members can strain relationships and impact patient care. Here’s a simple yet potent strategy: active listening. Be Present: Focus: Give your full attention to the speaker. Empathize: Understand their perspective without interruption. Clarify and Paraphrase: Ask Questions: Seek clarity on their concerns. Reflect Back: Paraphrase what you’ve heard to show understanding. Validate Emotions: Acknowledge Feelings: “I can see why you feel that way.” Normalize: Let them know it’s okay to have different viewpoints. Remember, active listening builds trust, fosters collaboration, and transforms conflicts into opportunities for growth!

We implemented a conflict resolution protocol that included monthly check-ins and mediation sessions. This proactive approach helped us address issues early on and maintained a collaborative spirit among our international researchers.

Robust training sessions for the folks and rigorous follow ups. While taking follow ups seniors must be humble and encourage your fellow colleagues regularly.

We organized cultural exchange workshops where researchers shared their backgrounds and traditions. This fostered a deeper understanding and respect among team members, which greatly reduced conflicts and enhanced our collaborative efforts.

Navigating staff conflicts requires proactive strategies. Implementing conflict resolution training is key: Education: Teach staff about conflict norms, resolution stages, and organization-specific processes. Communication Skills: Focus on active listening, empathy, and transparent dialogue. Power Dynamics: Address power imbalances to promote equitable resolution. Remember, well-trained teams foster collaboration and enhance patient care!

After introducing regular conflict resolution training, we observed significant improvements in how our team handled disputes. Researchers became more adept at addressing issues independently, leading to a more cohesive and productive research environment.

In my experience, there were situations where I would at times check in with my techs and clinicians to see if there are any issues at hand, especially the problems that we were facing such as putting equipment back to their respective locations. I would often reassure with the clinicians on whether the equipment are placed in the right place, and if the tables needed to be cleaned prior to a new patient arrival. This created a very health environment without any issues because it shows care and consideration for them but also for the life of the clinic.

We established a system of regular follow-up meetings with researchers involved in conflicts. This practice ensured that solutions were effective and sustainable, fostering a supportive and collaborative environment for our international team.

Some additional items to consider: - Build & Be a High Trust Leader. Modeling this behavior tells your team you trust them to make good decisions that also resolve conflicts. - Give space to your team to resolve conflict without you always intervening. It’s important to stay close to the issue to make sure it doesn’t escalate or get out of control, but in healthcare we hire really smart critical thinkers - let them do/be that. - Know when to nudge. The power of influence is key to this, so being an aware leader is important. - In conflict there are times a decisive leader is needed.. be that and be intentional in that. Remember conflict exposes pain points and pain points can be resolved.
