Whether it is communicating with friends, loved ones, or their health care providers, being able to communicate effectively can help them feel better about their conditions which can help the overall treatment process.

With various methods of communication including electronic and social media at their disposal Lynne T. Braun, PhD, ANP, from Rush University said it is important to use these methods in ways that are both effective and protect the privacy of the provider and the patient alike. Braun discussed this topic during the American College of Cardiology's 65th Annual Scientific Session and Expo in Chicago.
