Abstract

In medical practice, no one professional can perform the service independently. In clinical work, doctors and nurses need to communicate harmoniously and cooperate to effectively complete the treatment or nursing behavior for patients. However, communication between doctors and nurses is not as smooth as expected due to different statuses and unclear division of labor. Good communication is an effective guarantee for the smooth completion of work. On this premise, accidents can be avoided in the process of activities, and work quality and efficiency can be significantly improved. Reflection refers to the analysis of a problem from different angles, to conclude guiding future work practice. Taylor's reflective model is divided into four steps: construction, deconstruction, face, and reconstruction. Based on Taylor's model, the author reflects on his own experience by combining hegemonism, social criticism theory, and communicative behavior theory. Discuss the problems that may exist among medical staff and find the root causes through analysis. Further study on how to effectively communicate with doctors in the future work to reach a consensus, provide medical and nursing services for patients in the most efficient way, improve service quality and improve the doctor-patient relationship.
