I get offended if someone blames something on me during an argument so it makes me shut down and not want to talk to them.

I need to keep in mind that, like our course book says: “Constructive criticism does not condemn or judge but is based on empathy and a SINCERE DESIRE to help someone understand the impact of his or her behavior.” Another thing that was in out course book was to a T exactly what my communication goal was: “Identify the specific emotion you are experiencing as a result of the behavior. Sometimes we can’t describe our emotions because we don’t have the vocabulary to accurately describe what we are feeling.” I think that is a lot of my problem. Maybe I need to research “feelings” and what each feeling means so that I can better describe to someone my emotions?
Psychopharmacology and Mental Health Counseling Robina Choudhry Walden University The use of psychotropic medication is becoming more common in the field of mental health. While working with the clients taking these medications, counselors need to know the impact of these medications along with professional, ethical, and legal boundaries of practice.

In a hospital, group communications can range from AA meetings to drug abuse to various phobias which people want to overcome.
EHR’s are just that a record on the computer instead of hand written. Maybe it makes the physician more careful about how he spells or how he phrases the content of the procedure he just completed, but I cannot find any hard evidence that EHR’s are causing loss of autonomy. I find the size of the practice may be the problem for loss of autonomy. With too many physician in the group and the individual physician is getting lost in the crowd. They also have a central administration that plans and initiates change and the physicians are not sure how to handle someone else making their decision for them.
