Book excerpt: Pittsburgh personal injury lawyer and part-time drug dealer Jason Feldman’s life goals are simple: date hot women, earn enough cash to score cocaine on a regular basis, and care for his dementia-ravaged father. That all changes when a long-lost childhood friend contacts him about the discovery of buried remains belonging to a high school classmate who went missing thirty years prior, and the fragile life Jason’s built over his troubled past is about to come crashing down. Soon, he’s on the run across Pittsburgh and beyond to find his old friend, while trying to figure out whom to trust among Ukrainian mobsters, vegan drug dealers, washed-up sports stars, an Israeli James Bond, and an ex-wife who happens to be the district attorney.

Book excerpt: When Louisiana's most haunted B&B opens its doors to a debunker, a mysterious murderer settled the dispute in this paranormal cozy mystery. When Holly Davis converted a historic plantation house into a charming bed and breakfast, she had no idea that its most popular feature would be the resident ghost. But after the TV show Inquiring Minds airs its indisputably haunting footage, the reservation line is ringing off the hook. There's only one small problem: the ghost of her not-so-dearly-departed husband Burl appears to have . . . departed. Holly is willing to keep up a spooky pretense for the sake of business, but after an outspoken debunker challenges the show's credibility, Holly is sure she'll be exposed as a charlatan. Surprisingly, the debunker suddenly becomes a believer—after he's pushed off the widow's walk to his death and rises as a ghost. Now his inquiring mind wants to know who murdered him. When he asks for Holly's help, she can't say no. But this time it's her turn to watch her step, because if the killer gets spooked, the next ghost haunting the B&B may be its owner . . .

Download or read book Transforming NHS ambulance services written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2009-10 the eleven regional ambulance services in England handled 7.9 million emergency calls and spent 1.5 billion pounds on urgent and emergency services. They are expected to make 4 percent efficiency savings year on year in a time when public demand for services continues to rise. Performance was measured against three response time targets until 1 April 2011, but the incentive to meet these targets has led to some inefficiency, such as when more than one team is sent to incidents. The Committee welcomes the decision to introduce a wider suite of health quality indicators to create a broader performance regime in which response times remain one indicator. There is wide variation in the cost of responding to an incident across the services, and there is a need for more consistent performance data in order to benchmark and share best practice. Under the NHS reforms there is vagueness around who will be responsible for what: who commissions ambulance services; who is responsible for improving efficiency in ambulance services or who will intervene if a service has financial trouble or seriously under performs? There is need for greater clarity on the roles and responsibilities of the Department, commissioners and ambulance trusts with appropriate structures for accountability. Other parts of the Health service affect ambulance services and a more integrated emergency care system is needed to ensure that ambulances are utilised in the most efficient manner. Levels of collaboration between ambulance, fire and police services could be strengthened.

The chapters are based in the practical experiences of the authors and are written in a way that is accessible and suitable for a range of audiences.

Paresh Wankhade is Professor of Leadership and Management at Edge Hill University, UK Kevin Mackway-Jones is the Medical Director at North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust, UK Endorsements “This unique and valuable publication, charts the history and development of the ambulance service in England over the last hundred years or so. The role of this key emergency service has always been important, and arguably never more so than today. The contributing authors have not only provided the reader with great insights into where the service has come from and the leadership challenges it has, and continues to face; it also gives examples of how the future could look as our journey of transformation continues.” Peter Bradley CBE, MBA (and author of Taking Healthcare to the Patient 2005), Chief Executive Officer. St John National Headquarters, New Zealand "With a year on year increase in demand for emergency ambulances and over 9 million calls annually, the UK Ambulance Service must change from its emergency care and transport focus model. With the increase in professionalism of paramedics and an uplift in assessment and clinical skills the modern paramedic is increasingly able to treat at home, direct patients with alternative care pathways and avoid transportation to overburdened Emergency Departments. Whilst there is some historical and cultural resistance to change there is a need for further development in clinical skills and a new perspective for the future Ambulance Service. This book brings together practitioners, managers, academics and provides a broad understanding of the major management issues in the UK Ambulance Service. It includes the history of the Ambulance Service, quality and risk management issues, commissioning, leadership, intra-operability and shape of the future ambulance service. The content will be of interest to students, practitioners and academics". Sir Keith Porter, Professor of Clinical Traumatology, University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, United Kingdom
