Haymarket Medical ventures into educational DVDs

Haymarket Medical has launched its first educational DVD for healthcare professionals.

The DVD aims to improve doctors' communication skills so that they can achieve more effective consultations.

Poor communication by doctors is a common reason for complaints and litigation by patients. This DVD aims to tackle this problem by demonstrating the difficult skill of effective patient consultation.

Dr Peter Tate, a GP communications expert, created the DVD so that doctors at any stage of their careers can enhance their consulting skills for training, continuing professional development (CPD) or revalidation purposes.

Haymarket Medical’s DVD format is also designed to be suitable for group learning.

The DVD is available in the UK for £24.99 (including post and packaging) at www.healthcarerepublic.com/go/consulting/.
