When co-workers communicate they often send emails to each other regarding a certain objective. The same principle applies to Managers except being more formal is key to represent a professional proposal. Knowing the audience you plan to communicate with is important because you need to tailor you message accordingly to a higher management because the type of audience you are presenting to needs to have the appropriate message.

Deaf and hard of hearing (HH) patients often experience difficulty in communicating and understanding medication information provided by pharmacists due to communication barriers. They tend to nod “yes” and pretend to have understood pharmacists’ explanations and thus do not ask them to repeat their statements (Ferguson & Liu, 2015 ; Ralston, Zazove, & Gorenflo, 1996). It was reported that only 30% of pharmacists feel comfortable interacting with deaf patients (Ferguson and Shan). Inadequate communication in medical settings and a lack of understanding about medication can lead to misdiagnosis and misunderstandings. Therefore, it is crucial for pharmacists to check that deaf patients understand how to take their prescribed medicines and are aware of any adverse events to ensure a safe and effective healthcare (Ferguson & Shan, in press).

Communication. Most people agree that English is the globally recognized language for use within the international business. However, this is not always true if one takes in additional changes within the balance of economic power and the increasing mobility of the global workforce. Modern technology and shifts in national policy are common factors that influence the way English is used and taught. With the growth of the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, and China) economies, the balance of power has changed, and the economic primacy of the countries where English is a native language can no longer be taken for granted (Graddol, 2006). Combined with the number of native English speakers are falling in absolute terms, soon to fall into fifth place behind Mandarin, Spanish, Hindi-Urdu, and Arabic (Sweeney & Hua, 2010). Although numbers of non-native speakers of English are increasing, Sweeney & Hua (2010) estimates that about a quarter of the world’s population speaks English to a reasonable standard; by the year twenty-sixty, he estimates that non-native speakers will outnumber native speakers by fifty percent. However, its position and its nature could be the key is preparing to learn how to use different methods for communicating differences and differentiating between what are the standard aspects. What we considered acceptable or unacceptable within the culture. These issues can become a pure culture shock among managers, subordinates, and customers of foreign countries.

The significance of this ethical dilemma shows the vulnerability of the patient and how this language barrier may have unconsciously served as a manipulating tool of persuading the patient to have the therapeutic procedure. Thence, perpetuating the existing power relation differences between the patient and nurse relationship. The language barrier does not provide an excuse for not advocating a patient’s access to quality nursing care and for social justice as a human right. I have the moral obligation in recognising and ensuring that my patients have the knowledge and skills to make free and informed decisions. Therefore, developing skills to communicate with patients who speak in other languages other than English is pertinent for nurses as it ensures that patients with the legal capacity and sound mind have the right to be autonomous, make self-determined decisions and not out of mere compliance.

Directors it is important that it is done so in a formal manner. Any information that is given to them must be based on factual evidence rather than just opinion. This means when making recommendations, evidence needs to be given to support it, whether this be by including changes to statutory, local authorities or governing bodies requirements for the running of the home. Evidence may also be submitted in the form of a report formulated by myself, which would include different research methodologies to support my findings.

The significance of communication is proven since the beginning of life on this universe. It is not only a mere concept but a complete system in itself which today we find being supported by various gadgets too. It is such a broader word that despite several debates, still there is no agreed upon statement that comprehensively defines what Communication actually is. Even having a close look at the two definitions "Communication is the transmission information" or "Communication is the verbal interchange of a thought or idea"(Littlejohn & Foss, 2008, p.3) reveals that it revolves around exchange of opinion from one person to another. With the passage of time, various dimensions of communication have been explored and a number of communication theories have evolved.
