  1. Non-Violent Communication on 10 Slides (NVC) Laura Neale St1 GP Trainee

  2. Overview • Background • Explain NVC • Example • Important ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts’ • Conclusion

  3. Background • Developed by Marshall Rosenberg • Related to Ghandi’s philosophy of ahinsa (do no harm) • Used worldwide to resolve disputes at various levels

  4. Explaining NVC (1) • Actions and words represent attempt to meet our own needs • Conflict arises because of miscommunication about needs • 2 broad stages • 1st = Empathising • 2nd = Honest self-expression

  5. Explaining NVC (2) • For both stages employ OFNR • O = observations (must be neutral) • F = feelings • N = needs (NOT strategies) • R = requests (must be clear and feasible but not demanding) • Formal vs colloquial • Fluid • Spoken vs acted

  6. Example (1) • Busy weekend shift… imagine this scenario • You have 3 sick patients on the ward that need seeing • You have some I.V. antibiotics give • 4 patients waiting to be clerked in – the ward sister keeps bleeping you to remind you. (She’s already rang 4 times)

  7. Example (2) • Using OFN(R) • Stage 1 (empathise) - mop it up:- • Neutral observation e.g. “I can see you are very busy” • State what they’re feeling e.g. “This must be stressful for you” • Acknowledge their needs e.g. “I know you need to clear the backlog to keep the unit running smoothly”

  8. Example (3) • Using OFNR • Stage 2 (self-expression) – give it back:- • Neutral observations – state what is going on in a matter of fact way • Tell them how you feel e.g. “I feel stressed by this situation and concerned that the patients get the care they need” • Express your needs e.g. “I need to prioritise these tasks based on clinical need. I also need time and space to work through the tasks as best as I can” • Make a request e.g. “Would it be possible for you to stop bleeping me to remind me as this is slowing me down – I promise to be with you as soon as I can.”

  9. Do’s and Don’ts • Do • Try to understand people • Keep practising (emotional pollution) • Don’t • Express yourself first and ask to be understood (think like a vacuum) • Miscategorise someone’s feelings • Say what you don’t want rather than what you do • Worry more about other’s responses than your own

  10. Conclusion • NVC tried and tested tool for improving communication • 2-staged process – empathy and honest self-expression • Requires lots of practice • Nothing ventured, nothing gained!
