In the third and final episode of a podcast series on medical misinformation, nurse practitioners (NPs) Drs. Ruth Carrico and Paula Tucker delve into actionable strategies for building patient trust and addressing misinformation in health care. They emphasize communication frameworks like the 3 Es (Engage, Empathize, Educate), the 5 As (Ask, Advise, Assess, Assist, Arrange), motivational interviewing and shared decision-making. These approaches are designed to shift conversations from correction to connection, promoting understanding, empathy and collaboration between providers and patients. Both hosts stress the importance of humility, patient-centered care and adapting communication strategies to different health care settings. Ultimately, they call on nurse practitioners to incorporate these techniques to foster trust and informed choices in an era dominated by misinformation.
