Exercise Physiologist and Nurse

An exercise physiologist interrupts a nurse attending to a patient and demands time with the patient.

Themes: Opening initial contact, courteous initial approaches (including using correct titles), regard for others' time and 'busyness', selecting appropriate places for professional interactions, respecting professional boundaries, acknowledging opinions and needs of other health care specialisations, giving concise and considered reasons and justifications for requests, making efforts to be positive and accommodate professional requests, constructively negotiating requests and requirements, demonstrating high level professional interaction in front of patients.
