Abstract
Breaking bad news is a daily task for doctors and nurses. These health professionals may feel powerless to achieve this task and to deal with the emotions that arise in the patient when they are doing so. The interdisciplinary approach and a specific training are essential resources to feel more comfortable in this context. "EPICES", the French translation of the mnemonic acronym "SPIKES", of Buckman, gives a guide for this sensitive practice.Entities:
