A Practical Approach to Teaching about Communication with Terminal Cancer Patients.
Anderson, John L.
Journal of Medical Education, v54 n10 p823-24 Oct 1979
An exercise was devised at the Middlesex Hospital Medical School, London, to facilitate medical students' ability to discuss death and dying with cancer patients. Students begin with a written situation to problem-solve and then move into pairs and groups to reach a consensus and discuss the problem. A videotaped simulation is also used. (JMD)
