Teaching Communications in HealthCare

About EACH

The European Association for Communication in Healthcare (EACH) is a global organisation whose mission is to promote healthcare communication between patients, relatives and healthcare practitioners that is effective, patient-centred and evidence-based.  

Ample evidence demonstrates that effective communication is essential to high quality clinical practice and leads to:

  • Individualised care that respects patient autonomy
  • Safer and more effective healthcare
  • Improved disease outcomes
  • More satisfied and autonomous patients
  • More efficient services
  • More cost effective care

Evidence also demonstrates that more effective healthcare communication can be taught to every healthcare provider and implemented in daily practice.

tEACH is the teaching committee of EACH, composed of more than 40 working members representing a variety of healthcare disciplines and more than 21 different countries. Since 2008, tEACH has developed and collected teaching, curriculum and assessment resources, train the trainer courses, and provided support to communication teachers throughout Europe and beyond.
