(Smith, 2003) Checking twice, or more than twice may be less important than securing a diversity of views in such an arena. (Smith, 2003)
The ability adequately communicate risk levels amongst providers can become difficult. Also, hasty words can create a misperception in the minds of patients, if a doctor speaks too casually. "Science cannot prove a negative, but, where their children are concerned, parents want to be assured that risk is zero," and it is tempting for doctors to ignore communicating data, for fear of communication the issue. Some suggest, regarding all procedures, establishing a comprehensive 'Richter scale' of risks to communicate data to remove the potential for misunderstanding -- for example, identifying the riskiest scenarios, and flagging them for hospital staff, or using the 'pain scale' amongst all hospital staff and on paperwork of 1-10 to communicate how much pain a patient is in, on a feeling level, as well as the state of health according to traditional medical data. When informing different individuals of the emotional or 'felt' risks of performing or not performing a procedure, to quantify them as such data, even if feelings are subjective, can be helpful for all.

Lastly, it must be stressed that the stated goals at UCLA of patient safety and satisfaction may not be always complementary, as frequently perceptions of risk can be at odds with their likely occurrence. Patients may eschew vaccinations for their own children, obsessed with the relatively insignificant risk of autism caused by MMR vaccine despite the fact that the risk was posed by the vaccine relative to, for example, allowing their child to ride the...

Leadership is an ability which, either inborn or developed through hard work and ingenuity, presents the members of the organization with a paragon to forging action toward rational goals. While it is the responsibility of managerial personnel to issue directives, instructions and clarifications on goal- orientation, it is only a leader who can find ways to motivate the members of his organization.

The content language adopted for white collar workers will be a simple, plain one as the goal is for the message to be understood best and used by the employees in their interaction with the customers. In global communication campaigns, the language will be the same for white and blue collar workers and therefore a simple and plain one for everyone. In specific communications, the language can increase in complexity
Because patients have an active role in their care plan and are in more frequent contact with their healthcare provider, they gain a better understanding of their condition and become more compliant in their care." (Moore, 1) This speaks directly to the challenges in healthcare relating to diabetes, which is a condition that can best be controlled through effective personal lifestyle habits and a sound treatment of one's body. Being able to take proper routine
