Beyond meeting the children's physical care needs, they deserve supportive communication appropriate to the psychosocial needs of the child and family. Many pediatric hematology oncology patients are anxious,worried, or feel uncertain about their future. Such stressors can have long-lasting effects on patients’ quality of life and well-being. Communication during hospitalization could play an important role in determining pediatric hematology oncology patients’ concerns. Communication skills training is multidimensional and should be considered as a whole. For this reason, the trainings should be prepared to improve the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of the participants. The purpose of this review is to explain the importance of communication skills training for healthcare professionals working in the field of pediatric hematology/oncology.
