Information about Bedside Manner

Bedside manner is a term describing how a doctor handles a patient. A good bedside manner is typically one that reassures and comforts the patient. Vocal tones, body language, openness, presence, and concealment of attitude may all affect bedside manner. Poor bedside manner leaves the patient feeling unsatisfied, worried, alone, or frightened. Bedside manner becomes difficult when the doctor explains to the patient the true diagnosis, while keeping the patient from being alarmed.
