Due to the myriad of reasons a client could have to seek therapy, it is always a prudent idea to start with an initial consultation to narrow down the client’s reasons and expectations and establish an action plan. The client, on contacting the therapist, would normally provide some basic information, such as their name and contact details and possibly a brief of what they would like to see the therapist about. At this stage, the therapist would likely invite the client to attend an initial consultation to discuss the process in more depth. In many cases, the initial consultation would be offered as a half hour or hour slot on a free of charge basis as it would be used mainly as an information gathering session with no actual therapy being conducted at the time. This is not always necessary depending on the client’s reasons for wishing to see the therapist.

When we get to the school the first person that we saw was the security lady and my mom ask her something in Spanish and she didn’t understand, so I get a little be nervous because I thought that if it was a bilingual school why she didn’t understand Spanish. Then we went to an office to subscribe me in the school, and was glad for me that was a least one person that speak Spanish. She said that a in the beginning I was going to take the regular classes in Spanish and two classes to learn English. So I thought that it wasn’t bad if I was going to take the classes in Spanish that means that the other students talk Spanish too.

Introduction Communication and interpersonal skills are essential components in delivering goodquality nursing care.

In this chapter, as in all of the chapters in this book, you will find examples and explanations of how different aspects of communication are applied in the nursing context.
Newly graduates of nursing must be aware that there are some transitions that they have to undergo before they become full pledged nurses. During their initial practice, they will encounter different scenarios in the hospitals or clinics; nursing staff are ready to teach and facilitate the new graduates of the important transitions and development into a professional nurse who later on can make their own significant contributions to the working place. In this regard, the entire health care organization must have a strict orientation scheme that will stress to the newly nursing graduate about the goals and objectives of the organization. In the beginning, new nurse graduates are required to enroll into an orientation program which stresses the important strategies in building good relationships with their colleagues. By this way, all of them can get a solid support system from one another.
