Download or read book Pocket Book for Simulation Debriefing in Healthcare written by Denis Oriot and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a concise manual on debriefing techniques in a clinical educational context. It presents the most popular debriefing techniques and, hence, can be used as a reference manual by educators to help them achieve their intended debriefing objectives. The overarching objective of debriefing is to promote reflection and improve patient safety awareness at an individual and a team level. This book provides clear explanations of what constitutes a valuable and effective debriefing, and presents the various approaches that can be used and how debriefing differs from feedback. It includes key recommendations on aspects that directly or indirectly impact debriefing with different populations of learners such as students or qualified healthcare professionals of various levels of seniority. This book can also be used as a survival guide for both simulation educators and clinicians during debriefings. It includes several useful sections explaining the different phases of a debriefing session, which help learners develop and consolidate their knowledge, and identify potential knowledge or performance gaps and near misses. The underlying philosophy of this book is to also promote profound respect for the trainee by using a non-offensive debriefing approach. Debriefing facilitators will appreciate the several key sentences that will help them lead and engage their learners in the various phases of expressing their emotions and analyzing their experience and actions.
Download or read book The Medical Malpractice Myth written by Tom Baker and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American health care is in crisis because of exploding medical malpractice litigation. Insurance premiums for doctors and malpractice lawsuits are skyrocketing, rendering doctors both afraid and unable to afford to continue to practice medicine. Undeserving victims sue at the drop of a hat, egged on by greedy lawyers, and receive eye-popping awards that insurance companies, hospitals, and doctors themselves struggle to pay. The plaintiffs and lawyers always win; doctors, and the nonlitigious, always lose; and affordable health care is the real victim. This, according to Tom Baker, is the myth of medical malpractice, and as a reality check he offers The Medical Malpractice Myth, a stunning dismantling of this familiar, but inaccurate, picture of the health care industry. Are there too many medical malpractice suits? No, according to Baker; there is actually a great deal more medical malpractice, with only a fraction of the cases ever seeing the inside of a courtroom. Is too much litigation to blame for the malpractice insurance crisis? No, for that we can look to financial trends and competitive behavior in the insurance industry. Are these lawsuits frivolous? Very rarely. Point by point, Baker—a leading authority on insurance and law—pulls together the research that demolishes the myths that have taken hold about medical malpractice and suggests a series of legal reforms that would help doctors manage malpractice insurance while also improving patient safety and medical accountability. President Bush has made medical malpractice reform a priority in his last term in office, but if history is any indication, legislative reform would only worsen the situation and perpetuate the gross misunderstanding of it. The debate surely will be transformed by The Medical Malpractice Myth, a book aimed squarely at general readers but with radical conclusions that speak to the highest level of domestic policymaking.

Download or read book Where are the Physicians written by Lindsay Pratt and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-04 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year is 2015, and the public is saying, "Where are the physicians?" Also, they are complaining, "Why have my healthcare services become so difficult to obtain?" The problem? The private healthcare delivery system has been replaced by a National Health Service. There is a physician shortage, and many of those who have become physicians have not come from the best of our youth. In addition, curtailed health care services are necessary to pay the costs of the national, state, and local bureaucracies required to administer the government's National Health Service. This book will have you rethinking healthcare's many economic and social problems, and how the introduction of, and subsequent misuse of, unregulated hospital and health insurance have created those problems. Also, you will understand how easily those problems can be solved by six changes in the existing private healthcare delivery system. Furthermore, you will understand why a regulated private healthcare delivery system must be preserved and you will understand the inherent dangers of allowing a National Health Service to become our country's healthcare delivery system. This book will move those independent thinkers among the public and within the business community to become political activists. They will understand the necessity of preventing a government sponsored National Health Service from doing to our healthcare delivery system what the government sponsored Depts. of Education have done to our country's public education system.
