Your plan

Communication at Falls Health Clinic

Saying what you mean in a way the other person can actually use.

Not the same as: Being talkative. A short, clear message from a quiet person is strong communication.

Workdays to walk through

  1. Workday 01 · The Favor

    Monday · 8:52 AM

    Your cousin's husband wants to know if his wife came in last week, and why. He's not being cruel about it. He's just asking.

  2. Workday 02 · A Slow Afternoon

    Tuesday · 1:15 PM

    Nothing urgent is happening, which is its own kind of trap. No-shows, a records request and a phone that won't stop, and every small decision is yours alone.

  3. Workday 03 · In Front of Everyone

    Thursday · 2:50 PM

    Walt comes apart at the desk in front of a full waiting room. You have maybe ten seconds to protect his dignity before this becomes something the whole town heard about.

Practice steps

These get harder as you go. Tick the ones you have actually done at work — nobody is grading this.
