ABOUT THIS LECTURE

The talk is for doctors and any members of the healthcare team who want to learn about approaching the topic of reproductive history in a way that fosters trust and sets the tone for a positive relationship with the patient. This is for any specialty because, even when reproductive history isn’t pertinent, the topic is often brought up as a way to establish a rapport with patients. What may seem like innocent questions and comments, however, can actually lead to significant painful emotional reactions, damages the doctor-patient relationship and erodes the trust of physicians and healthcare in general.

Learn about:

Why reproductive history can be a trigger whether you have children or not and how it impacts your relationship with your patient
Why you shouldn’t be asking or commenting about things like “when are you going to have a/another child?” when it’s not relevant clinically
How to approach the history in a sensitive manner when it is clinically pertinent
How to address the issue when there is a painful history
Resources for your patients who need help with an emotionally painful history
