Sažetak
Communication in medicine is a fundamental clinical skill
and one of the most important tools we have for provid-
ing quality patient care and improving patient satisfaction.
Good communication between health professionals and
patients is mutually beneficial and essential in the thera-
peutic process. The patient can receive a better and more
personalized care, while the health worker will find it eas-
ier to perform his work. Communication in medicine has
evolved from the paternalistic model to the current model
of collaborative partnership, which highlights the impor-
tance of informed consent and shared decision making.
In person-centered medicine and people-centered health
care, an effective communication is regarded as the best
example of ars medica (the art of medicine), while the com-
munication skills training has become internationally ac-
cepted as an essential component of medical education.
