d ANS:
C
Effective interpersonal communication requires a sense of mutuality, a belief
that the nurse-patient relationship is a partnership, and that both are equal
participants. Critical thinking in nursing, based on established standards of
nursing care and ethical standards, promotes effective communication and
uses such standards as humility, self- confidence, independent attitude, and
fairness. To be authentic (one's self) and to respond appropriately to the
other person are important for interpersonal relationships but do not mean
mutuality. Attending is giving all of your attention to the patient.

on-one interaction between the nurse and another person that often occurs
face to face. Meaningful interpersonal communication results in exchange of
ideas, problem solving, expression of feelings, decision making, goal
accomplishment, team building, and personal growth. Small group
communication is interaction that occurs when a small number of persons
meet. This type of communication is usually goal directed and requires an
understanding of group dynamics. When nurses work on committees, lead
patient support groups, form research teams, or participate in patient care
conferences, they use a small group communication process. Intrapersonal
communication is a powerful form of communication that occurs within an
individual. For example, you improve your health and self-esteem through
