If you have poor body langue age like crossed legs and playing with a pen it suggests that you are not paying attention n and you are not interested in what the other person is saying. Will now explain the e role of effective communication and interpersonal interactions within two scenarios. Scenario 1 Alfa will not leave his room after accusing other residents in a residential home for stealing his money before the career found this money in Alfa pocket.The care r would have to communicate with Alfa to help the situation as a one to one context to encourage Alfa to feel comfortable as he may not feel comfortable talking about the situate ion when other residents or careers are present because he may feel embarrassed. As Alfa is a welsh speaker a career that has the ability to speak welsh should b allocated to talk to Alfa to prevent any language barriers that may arise. This WI II be a formal conversation between professional and a person using the service.The career will have to use oral communication as it is the most effective WA y to gain an immediate response and to be able to show your emotion such as using b DOD language. Body language is an important nonverbal interpersonal interaction because it can show another person our emotions e. G.

The career could also use technological communication by Emailing or testing the main career to inform the m of the sis tuition that has occurred because tech analogical communication is the most effective way if you need to inform someone of something and do not need an immediate response Scenario 2 Rosier is a young women who is terminally ill, she informs the career that she re ally wants to leave hospital to go home.The career would have to communicate with Rossi e and Rookie's family within a group context, this will be because as Rosier deteriorate s her family would be held responsible to care for her as well as a district nurse.

After explaining the role of e ffective communication and interpersonal interaction in a health and social care context it shows just how important effective communication is to be able e to be understood.Effective communication is important because without it patients wouldn't e able to receive the care that they need because of poor or no communication interpersonal interactions are also important so that the emotion behind ha t a person is saying is not misunderstood. 3 PA Discuss theories of communication will be discussing two theories of communication one as a that applies to a o en to one context and the other as a group context. Jean's theory assists in giving effective communication to patients, this once auroras the patient to trust the caregiver.Jean's theory (1986) consists of a technique called ‘SOLES and each letter h s a different step in order to communicate effectively. Jean's theory can only be used in a one to one context however it can be formal or informal. The ‘S' is for sitting at a comfortable distance and angle, the ‘O' is for open p suture, the ‘L' is for leaning,looking and listening the ‘E' is for effective eye contact and the ‘ R' is for remaining relatively relaxed.A situation that is suitable for this theory would be a General Practitioner TA King to their patient, this is suitable because it is a situation where the context is one to on e and it is formal. A GAP would use the ‘SOLES' technique from the moment their patient walks through the door, they should be sitting at the right angle which is head on to the patient and they should be sitting at a comfortable distance not too close and not too far away because e the patient may feel that they are not important if they are sat far away however they ma y feel intimidated if the GAP sits too close to them.They should sit with an open posture with their arms and legs uncrossed to prevent the patient from feeling that the GAP is uninterested. They shouldn't put anything I n between themselves and the patient e. . A table, a cup Of coffee/ tea because this may give the impression that they are putting a physical barrier in between a professional and a user of the service which can cause the patient to feel they do not want to have a connect ion with the GAP leading to the patient not telling the GAP what their problem is.When a GAP is talking to their patient they should lean forward every now an d then, they should look as if they are genuinely interested and listen attentively all these s tepees empower the patient which should encourage the patient that they can take control Oft e conversation supporting their confidence. A GAP should use effective eye contact when communicating to a patient to ensure the patient knows the GAP is listening to them which should be done by looking at the but not staring, however if the patient has a condition such as anxiety this may make them feel uncomfortable and anxious.The GAP should remain relaxed and talk w ith a calm and almost sympathetic voice throughout the session so that the patient does not become panicked however re if the patient becomes aggressive the GAP should talk in an assertive voice and try to diffuse he situation encouraging patient to calm down. Jean's theory would also be effective when a counselor is talking to their p tenant however it wouldn't be effective at a work meeting because this is within a group and Egg Nan's theory is for a one to one context. Barnyard's theory is used within groups and could be formal or informal. It works by noticing the dynamics within a group and preventing or encouraging them. Barnyard's theory could be used at a daycare centre because this is a group. In the group some children have been attending for a long time and some may be new, so the children that eve been there longer have had chance to bond and get to know each other whereas the newer children may not want to be there and may try to be destructive toward ads the discussion s or just too shy to bond with others.
