Download or read book Medical Regulation Fitness to Practice and Revalidation written by Chamberlain, John Martyn and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2015-08-26 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical sociology has long been concerned with the role played by specialist forms of expertise in enabling the governance of ‘troublesome’ social groups – including those who are unwell, ‘deviant’ and criminally insane. However, only recently has it begun to explore how the state ensures the public is protected from acts of medical malpractice, negligence and criminality. Against the background of a series of high-profile scandals, including the case of Dr Harold Shipman who murdered over 200 of his patients, this topical and authoritative book examines how the regulation of doctors has been modernised by reforms to the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service and the introduction of the quality assurance process of medical revalidation. In doing so, it questions whether there is evidence to support the argument that revalidation serves the public interest by ensuring that individual doctors are fit to practise. Highlighting areas of good practice and areas for further research and development, the book is ideal for academics and postgraduates interested in medical sociology, socio-legal studies, medical law, medical education, health policy and related subjects

Download or read book Revalidation of doctors written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Health Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-02-08 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee says the GMC should be accountable to Parliament. The GMC is formally accountable to the Privy Council but "In the absence of a mechanism which makes this accountability effective" the MPs intend to exercise this function themselves on behalf of Parliament. Revalidation of doctors has been under discussion for over 10 years. This is considered too long the GMC is expected to ensure that there are no further delays and that the current target date of late 2012 is achieved. Reviewing the GMC's current proposals MPs warn that too little attention has been given to the issue of how to deal with doctors whose practice gives cause for concern. The Committee is also concerned that the use of the word 'remediation' may have the effect of pre-judging the appropriate response to a particular set of circumstances. In relation to appraisal systems, MPs broadly support the proposal that revalidation should be based on the conclusions of employers' appraisal systems. However, there is evidence showing that the record of employers on appraisal is patchy and the importance of patient and colleague involvement in the appraisal process is emphasised. MPs also felt there should be clear guidance about how Responsible Officers should act when a conflict of interest arises between their responsibility to their employer and their responsibility to the GMC. Finally the issue of doctors for whom English is a second language was considered. As the body responsible for revalidation and with a commitment to introducing it by late 2012, the GMC is expected to satisfy itself that it has the necessary powers to fulfil this role; if it is not satisfied it needs to say so publicly and report to Parliament what changes are necessary to allow it to fulfil its function effectively

Download or read book Guide to Wireless Mesh Networks written by Sudip Misra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overview and Goals Wireless communication technologies are undergoing rapid advancements. The last few years have experienced a steep growth in research in the area of wireless mesh networks (WMNs). The attractiveness of WMNs, in general, is attributed to their characteristics such as the ability to dynamically self-organize and self-con?gure, coupled with the ability to maintain mesh connectivity leading, in effect, to low set-up/installation costs, simpler maintenance tasks, and service coverage with high reliability and fault-tolerance. WMNs also support their integration with existing wireless networks such as cellular networks, WLANs, wireless-?delity (Wi-Fi), and worldwide interoperability of microwave access (WiMAX). WMNs have found u- ful applications in a broad range of domains such as broadband home networking, commercial/business networking, and community networking – particularly attr- tive in offering broadband wireless access with low initial installation and set-up costs. Even though WMNs have emerged to be attractive and they hold great promises for our future, there are several challenges that need to be addressed. Some of the wellknownchallenges areattributedtoissuesrelatingtoscalability(signi?cantdrop in throughput with the increase in the number of nodes), multicasting, offering qu- ity of service guarantees, energy ef?ciency, and security. This handbook attempts to provide a comprehensive guide on fundamental key topics coupled with new ideas and results in the areas of WMNs. The book has been prepared keeping in mind that it needs to prove itself to be a valuable resource dealing with both the important core and the specialized issues in WMNs.

Download or read book Performance Driven IT Management written by Ira Sachs and published by Government Institutes. This book was released on 2011-01-16 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Despite spending more than $600 billion on information technology over the past decade, the Federal Government has achieved little of the productivity improvements that private industry has realized from IT" according to the 25 Point Implementation Plan to Reform Federal Information Technology Management published by the White House in late 2010. "Too often, Federal IT projects run over budget, behind schedule, or fail to deliver promised functionality." This book argues that the Federal Government needs a new approach. Introducing a novel five-step process called performance-driven management (PDM), author Ira Sachs explains in detail how to reduce risk on large IT programs and projects. This book walks through the five steps of the PDM process: conducting a high-level strategic review of what an organization does, who it serves, what it wants to do, and how it is going to do it; instituting performance measures to gauge success for the organization; completing comprehensive business cases for projects and using them to mitigate risk and manage projects throughout the project life cycle; performing benefits realization on completed projects; and establishing these best practices to achieve successful results in the future. This is an essential tool for all IT and business managers in government and contractors doing business with the government, and it has much useful and actionable information for anyone who is interested in helping their business save money and take on effective, successful practices.
