Communication Coaching
for Better Healthcare
Good communication is a partnership between Patient and Provider.
Doctors and other healthcare professionals are taught how to communicate with patients-- where can you learn to communicate more effectively with them?
PRN can help. We offer services that build communication skills for Patients, to strengthen the partnership between Patient and Provider.

The Workshop is designed for Community Education Programs, Active Senior Living Centers, and any classroom venue where people would like to learn practical, evidence-based strategies for more effective healthcare communication.
