Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Institute of Medicine study Crossing the Quality Chasm (2001) recommended that an interdisciplinary summit be held to further reform of health professions education in order to enhance quality and patient safety. Health Professions Education: A Bridge to Quality is the follow up to that summit, held in June 2002, where 150 participants across disciplines and occupations developed ideas about how to integrate a core set of competencies into health professions education. These core competencies include patient-centered care, interdisciplinary teams, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, and informatics. This book recommends a mix of approaches to health education improvement, including those related to oversight processes, the training environment, research, public reporting, and leadership. Educators, administrators, and health professionals can use this book to help achieve an approach to education that better prepares clinicians to meet both the needs of patients and the requirements of a changing health care system.

Download or read book The Successful Health Care Professional s Guide written by Philip K. Louie and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this concise guide is to provide a resource of “non-medical” skills and practices that have been shown to help healthcare trainees reach their peak performance. There are many aspects of the healthcare education and training process that are necessary for excelling, preparing for the next stage, and thriving at the level of the trainee’s end goal. However, certain additional skills and principles are essential in reaching peak performance during training, career, and life. Often overlooked in formal training, these skills and principles can be found in a range of areas, including leadership, goal-setting, mentorship, relationships, skills-training, stoicism, and financial planning, to name just several. All are critical in medical-career development, but learning these skills and principles often requires searching through numerous resources to aquire the needed information. Having completed the rigorous training involved in these professions, the accomplished chapter authors of this easy-to-read title offer insightful key points and tangible action items in each section, geared specifically to the trainee and their training education. In addition, authors from various non-medical sectors and professional backgrounds have contributed their expertise to this compendium, giving the book important interdisciplinary coverage. An invaluable and timely contribution to the health career development literature, The Successful Health Care Professional’s Guide will be of great interest to medical students, residents, fellows and all allied health professionals looking to develop the most successful and fulfilling career possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Success in the Medical Profession: An Introductory Lecture Delivered at the Massachusetts Medical College, November 6th, 1850 N 0 man who embarks his lot for life in our profession - no man who intends to practise it with a view to its highest usefulness to others, as well as to his own best advantage, should aim at the cultivation of the qualities that can only gain him a patronage so worthless and evanescent as this. I believe, gentlemen, I may say with truth, that everything re lating to your studies, your character, your habits, your manners, your social and professional intercourse, may have an influence more or less important on your prosperity in the profession you have chosen; and my present purpose is to offer a few suggestions to aid in preparing you to acquire that sort of confidence which I have described as the only sure foundation for permanent success. Of course I shall be expected to say that a thorough knowledge of medicine is of the first importance, and assuredly it is so. But this general statement requires some qualification. Medicine embraces a vast field of knowledge. To go over the whole of it is impossible, even in a long life. The pupil can only begin its cultivation. All this knowledge is of value; but all is not of equal value. All has some connection, but not an equal connection, with practice. Now the main purpose of the study of medicine with most of us, is to enable us to treat disease. This is the ultimate object, which is to be kept in view at every step. It is for this end that the science of medicine exists for this that the profession exists. This is never for a moment to be forgotten. No doubt there are some physicians whose aim is different - to whom practice is a secondary concern. They mean to acquire a great proficiency in some particular department. They mean to devote peculiar attention to anatomy, to pathology, to organic chemistry, to the microscopic study of organic forms. These are all useful pursuits, and they all have a useful bearing upon practice. But I am not speaking to such persons. The mass of medical students are to be practitioners, and practitioners only. These are the proper subjects of general medi cal instruction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book How to Succeed in the Practice of Medicine written by Joseph McDowell Mathews and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Succeed in the Practice of Medicine For the past twenty-five years it has been my pleasure to be connected in a professorial way with several medical colleges in this city. During this time I have frequently talked to the students about "the business side" of the medical profession. They have often asked me to reduce these thoughts to writing; hence this book. I make free use of "the personal pronoun" because I regard this more in the nature of a "heart-to-heart" talk with the "boys" than otherwise. I insert my photograph because they have requested it. The book is enlarged that it may interest all members of the medical profession, and the laity are earnestly requested to read it. Many "fads and frauds" are dealt with without "fear or favor." It has been painful to me to see many of my professional friends die and leave their families in actual want. The reason is plain that it was either their own fault or the fault of their clientele, and how to prevent this happening to others is the main object of the book. I have tried to write "a guide to success" intended principally for medical students and the young practitioners of medicine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the realm of health care, privacy protections are needed to preserve patients' dignity and prevent possible harms. Ten years ago, to address these concerns as well as set guidelines for ethical health research, Congress called for a set of federal standards now known as the HIPAA Privacy Rule. In its 2009 report, Beyond the HIPAA Privacy Rule: Enhancing Privacy, Improving Health Through Research, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Health Research and the Privacy of Health Information concludes that the HIPAA Privacy Rule does not protect privacy as well as it should, and that it impedes important health research.

Download or read book Evidence Based Medicine and the Changing Nature of Health Care written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-09-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the work of the Roundtable on Evidence-Based Medicine, the 2007 IOM Annual Meeting assessed some of the rapidly occurring changes in health care related to new diagnostic and treatment tools, emerging genetic insights, the developments in information technology, and healthcare costs, and discussed the need for a stronger focus on evidence to ensure that the promise of scientific discovery and technological innovation is efficiently captured to provide the right care for the right patient at the right time. As new discoveries continue to expand the universe of medical interventions, treatments, and methods of care, the need for a more systematic approach to evidence development and application becomes increasingly critical. Without better information about the effectiveness of different treatment options, the resulting uncertainty can lead to the delivery of services that may be unnecessary, unproven, or even harmful. Improving the evidence-base for medicine holds great potential to increase the quality and efficiency of medical care. The Annual Meeting, held on October 8, 2007, brought together many of the nation's leading authorities on various aspects of the issues - both challenges and opportunities - to present their perspectives and engage in discussion with the IOM membership.
