About Clinical Communication
GoConqr OriginalWhat this page covers
These resources focus on how clinicians talk with patients. Topics include consultation style, shared decision making, communicating risk, empathetic language, non-verbal communication, diversity in healthcare and managing difficult or anxious patients. All of it was made by GoConqr users, so the style and depth vary from set to set.
Where to start
Begin with the flashcard deck Clinical communication. It asks what good communication with patients looks like and introduces the Calgary-Cambridge framework. Then move to the OSCE deck, which walks through the communication cycle and the steps to effective communication.
- Read the basics in the Clinical communication deck.
- Take the Motivational Interviewing quiz to test how you think about helping styles.
- Try the Multicultural Awareness quiz for questions on cultural and linguistic diversity.
- Move on to the decision making and risk decks.
Going deeper
The deck Lecture 21 - health decision making covers models of consultation style and shared decision making. Lecture 22 - Communication covers absolute and relative risk, patient stories and dot diagrams. The deck Week 5 compares doctor-centred and patient-centred consultations and defines compliance and non-adherence.
For sensitive conversations, read the notes on breaking bad news and the note Special Patients/Challenging Questions. It gives short tips for anxious and angry patients.
Using quizzes and maps together
Take a quiz first and note which questions you missed. Then open a mind map on the same theme. There are maps on difficult patients, barriers to communication, non-verbal communication, the therapeutic relationship and how to break bad news. Compare a map with your wrong answers, then retake the quiz a few days later.
Where this fits
This unit sits in the Clinical Practice and Patient Care strand of Medicine and health (other or general). Most of the material suits university-level study, with some aimed at professional candidates.

Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with the flashcard deck called Clinical communication. It defines clinical communication, asks why it matters and introduces the Calgary-Cambridge framework. Once that feels familiar, the Motivational Interviewing quiz is a good next step because it checks how well you understand helping styles.
What do the mind maps on this page cover?
There are over 20 mind maps. They cover difficult and challenging patients, barriers to communication, non-verbal communication, the therapeutic relationship, diversity in healthcare, consulting skills and how to break bad news. Some are short outlines, so use them alongside a quiz or deck.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself, so quality and depth differ between them. Check a few and keep the ones that suit how you study.
Who are these resources suited to?
They suit university students and professional candidates practicing patient communication, and teachers who want ready-made material. Most are at university level. None of the listed resources name a specific exam, so check them against your own course outline.
Is there anything on breaking bad news?
Yes. There is a note on good practice in breaking bad news, which mentions involving patients and carers in decisions about their future management. There is also a mind map titled how to break bad news. Read the note first, then use the map to summarize it.
What if I can't find the topic I need?
Try the related quizzes and decks here first, since communication ideas often overlap. If a topic is still missing, make your own mind map, flashcards or quiz with a free account, which also saves your quiz scores.
