About this trial

CARE (C: connect, A: apologize, R: repair, E: exceed) is a standard service recovery communication mode in medical services. However, clinical nurses found it hard to follow because it lacked essential communication guidance. The AIDET mode (A: acknowledge, I: introduce, D: duration, E: Explanation, T: thank), which offers such guidance, might be combined with CARE to form a new mode. This study aims to verify the effect of integrating CARE and AIDET on outpatient nurses' service recovery.
