This study may serve as a basis for the officials of geriatric institutions to enhance the communication skills of their staff in taking care of their geriatric clients in using both verbal and nonverbal communication skills. This will also help them to improve the quality of care they render to their clients. This study serves as a guide for future study regarding the same subject matter. It will also stand as future reference for further study in the following school year. It could also be a basis for enhancing the communication skills of other health related professionals when it comes to dealing with geriatric patients. Other editions:
