Here are some examples of open questions that you can ask your patients in a 1:1 conversation to find out a what their motivation for doing it might be or what concerns them and why they don’t want to do certain tasks:
- Tell me what you know about shared haemodialysis care?
- Tell me how you feel about shared haemodialysis care?
- Tell me what you want from shared haemodialysis care?
- Tell me what you like about shared haemodialysis care?
- Tell me what you don’t like about shared haemodialysis care?
This may reveal quite a lot about the individual’s understanding and how they feel.
- Listen to what they say in answer to your open questions and thank them for sharing their thoughts with you
- You could then give them some information based on what they have said or you might make a suggestion
- Then ask what they think about that what you have offered in response.
