Breaking Bad News - The SPIKES tool for DOCTORS

One of the most difficult things doctors do is give patients bad news. Almost all specialties have to master this skill. Even if you choose not to pursue a career in medicine it is likely you will have to give bad news from time to time. The SPIKES framework is an excellent tool to aid doctors in this task. Dr. Rich Hilsden describes the SPIKES tool in this video and discusses a case where giving bad news was particularly difficult. Another great video demonstrating many of these skills can be seen here    • Breaking Bad News - OSCE Guide | UKMLA CPS...   Follow me on socials: Instagram   / hilsdenr   TikTok   / rich_hilsden
