Hematologists/oncologists have a crucial responsibility to effectively communicate with patients. However, they have been criticized for ineffective communication with patients. To develop effective communication behaviors that meet the needs of patients and families, trainees need practice and feedback about their performance. Medical faculties frequently teach communication skills using simulation-based curricula; however, they often include only general communication skills, without tailored approaches for specialties. This study examined Hematology/Oncology trainees' qualitative perceptions about the value of and techniques used for simulations of specialty specific, essential conversations with patients and families, and debriefing sessions. Results demonstrate a highly effective curriculum and positive learner experiences. While most reports on this topic take place within major academic cancer centers, outcomes from a mid-sized Hematology/Oncology training program are unknown. The study confirms feasibility for implementing a simulation-based communications program in a mid-sized Hematology/Oncology program and describes simulation techniques that were effective.
