LEARNING OBJECTIVES
“An expert in breaking bad news is not someone who gets it right
every time—he or she is merely someone who gets it wrong less
often, and who is less flustered when things do not go smoothly.“
The aims:
+ Deliver bad news clearly, honestly and sensitively
+ In order that patients can both understand and feel supported.
