Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Introduction: The incorporation of emotional and communication skills into the training of health professionals is a widely documented need in the specialized literature, although integrating these skills into the curriculum remains a challenge for educational institutions. In response to this issue, a training model was designed to foster the development of these competencies in health sciences students. Objective: To describe and justify a model aimed at promoting the development of emotional and communication skills in health sciences students through a reflective methodology centered on clinical practice. Methodology: The model was designed based on a narrative review of the literature and empirical evidence from a study involving Uruguayan physicians. The proposal integrates contributions from various theoretical and methodological approaches into a comprehensive model that combines practices with documented efficacy with innovations aimed at stimulating reflection on clinical experience. Results: The model offers an alternative for incorporating the emotional dimension into the training of future health professionals, integrating scientific evidence, critical reflection, and the subjective construction of learning. Conclusions: The proposal helps address challenges reported in the literature through a model applicable to both students and health professionals.
