Event Details

Need help communicating with the child in your care? 

This session will explore the following skills:

• The ‘Killers’ of Communications
• Attending….’yes… I am ready to listen’
• Empathy ….is more than “I know how you feel”
• Asking effective questions so you will get more than just a ‘yes’, ‘no’, ‘dunno’ answer!!

Participants will be introduced to the skills and provided an opportunity to practice these skills.

This session will run for 1.5 hours with a 30min Q&A session afterwards.
