Explanation

Facial expressions and other nonverbal signals can reveal how a patient is feeling, giving a nursing assistant more information about the patient’s condition. Noticing these cues can help the assistant reassure patients, recognize when they may need further explanation, and build stronger relationships through responsive communication. Nonverbal signals do not make technical medical details easier to understand or create new meanings in the hospital setting.
