| Research Abstract |
There are many barrier existed on the communication between patient and healthcare professionals. This study was focused on the informed consent to cancer patient when they started the chemotherapy. An investigation into explanations of chemotherapy and patients' attitude to informed consent was likely to offer useful suggestions on how to better provide information on chemotherapy. We wanted to contribute these results to an understanding of patient's feeling and building the program of communication training for healthcare professionals. The result of this study suggested that even if the healthcare professional provided the same explanation, individual characteristics such as awareness or understanding of the treatment might affect subsequent treatment activities. So it was important for healthcare professionals to think great deal of patient's individuality.
