It is important that nurses are skilled in the art of interpersonal communication. Skill refers to the ability to apply the appropriate behavior in the given context.

Chapter one of our book outlines a few of the principles of interpersonal communication; One of these principles claims that interpersonal communication is irreversible (McCornack 16).

Interpersonal communication is the process of sending and receiving information between two or more people. It is a person-to-person contact, it includes everyday exchange that may be formal or informal and can take place anywhere by means of words, sounds, facial expression, gestures and postures.
