This work aims to enable readers to use language that the intended audience will understand. It contains explanations of common NHS jargon, with alternatives, and includes plain speaking as well as writing. It covers examples from real NHS management communications. |
Synopsis: |
Used properly jargon can be effective, but used incorrectly it can damage communications, waste time and money, and harm public, patient and staff relations. This book will enable and encourage readers to use language that the intended audience will understand. It provides practical advice based on the author's experience of producing National Health Service documents and contains explanations of common NHS jargon, with alternatives. Plain speaking and writing techniques are included, and there are numerous examples from real NHS management communications. This is an invaluable book for Health Service managers, clinicians with management responsibilities and all those responsible for communicating information about healthcare. |
