Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Changes within the NHS have established perioperative practitioners, as well as other healthcare professionals, in roles that include obtaining informed consent. Practitioners involved in these roles require highly developed communication skills (Church 2008a). This article examines the philosophy of risk communication and explores the often complex skill of communication in informed consent.
