This SBAR Technique online training course explores a communication technique called SBAR or Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendations. Studies suggest that lack of communication between caregivers—doctors and nurses as well as between nurses—leads to adverse health events unrelated to a patient’s illness.

This technique enables nurses and other caregivers to communicate better with doctors. It equips them with the skills required to evaluate a situation, obtain a detailed background history, assess the problem, and provide recommendations to the attending physician in a clear and concise manner.
