receivers cannot ask questions or seek clarificationfrom the sender.
Two-way communication is face-to-facecommunication when Sender sends the information tothe receiver and the receiver has the opportunity todiscuss, ask questions and seek clarification or additional information from the sender.

CH ALLENGES OF COMMUNICATION
The challenge of communication really is that thereceiver receives the message that the sender intendedto send with the same meaning, because the messageis received translated and perceived by the receiver before responding and therefore it is important toensure that the process of interaction is clear and beingunderstood by all involved within the original intendedcontext.
It is only then that communication can be effective .
This is especially essential when delivering healthmessages and recommending compliance to certain
behaviors or practices.

Interactive Communication
Interactive communication is a process that facilitates a
dialogue to provide multiple opportunities to accuratelyinterpret meaning and respond appropriately. An interactivemodel is similar to a discussion rather than a lecture.
F or example, using an interactive model, a client may beasked what they know about nutrition during pregnancy or how will they recognize any complication during pregnancy.
As the mother and her family describe aspects of her nutrition and signs for recognizing complications of pregnancy, the H CP s can then respond to fill in knowledgegaps, correct misinformation and verify client understanding,thus eliminating or minimizing misunderstandings. H elping

Verbal Skills
Voice: (TONE)
It Plays an important role in body language. e.g.the four ways you might say this sentence.
W here have you been?
HCP s tone when speaking to the client can either enhance the dialogue process or becomethreatening for the client

16/50
Asking Q uestions
E ffective questioning technique can turn a clientsvisit into a two-way interaction and promote dialogueleading to client satisfaction and compliance tohealthy practices. Non- appropriate questioning canbecome just one-sided communication where theHCP asks questions and recommends treatmentleading to inappropriate service and dissatisfactionof the client.

Open-Ended Q uestions
Open-ended questions are questions that start withW ho, W hat, W here, W hen, H ow and W hy andrequire more than a yes/no response.
These questions encourage disclosure of information.
1 . Whom can you talk to about this problem?2. What kind of foods are you taking?3. Why do you think your legs are swollen?4. Where do you plan to have your baby?5. When do you plan to have a checkup?

Closed-Ended Q uestions
Closed-ended questions are also known as leading or
Restrictive questions because they bring yes/no responses and limit the information sought from the receiver.
H ave you checked to see if baby has a temperature?
EXAMPLE
1. Is the swelling painful?2. Are you taking eggs in breakfast?3. Is this your first pregnancy?
4. Does your mother-in-law help you in cooking food for thefamily?

INTIM ATE ZONE : (Between 15 and 45 centimeters or 6to 18 inches) of all the zone distances, this is by far themost important as it is this zone that a person guards as if it were its own property. Only those who are emotionallyclose to that person are permitted to enter it this includesparents, spouse, children, close friends and relatives.
Personal Z one: (Between 46 centimeters and 1.22meters or 18 to 48 inches). This is the distance that westand from others at parties, social functions and familygatherings.

Principals of Communication
Inescapable: There are some who state that they cannot communicatebut the very attempt not to communicate communicates something.
Irreversible: One cannot take back what has been said. One maysometimes try to change the effect of saying things like I really didnot mean what I said.It is important to think carefully before communicating.
Unrepeatable: C ommunication is unrepeatable i.e. we cannot create thesame situation again. We only get one chance to create a first impression.Later impressions are formed in light of the early impression.
