Download or read book Reconstructing Medical Practice written by Christine Jorm and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reconstructing Medical Practice examines how doctors see health care and their place in it, why they remain in medicine and why they are limited in their ability to lead change in the current system. Doctors are beset by doubts and feel rejected by systems where they should be leaders - some see their role as 'flog[ging] a derelict system to get the last breath of workability out ... for their patients'. Others simply turn away. Rigorous studies carried out at large public teaching hospitals in Australia found that doctors were reluctant to increase safety in the wider health system, despite making every effort for their 'own' patients. Doctors' self-esteem was found to be delicate due to the uncertain nature of their work; colleagues provide the support doctors need to deliver good care. However, these essential relationships and their cherished connections with patients have disadvantages: reducing doctors' ability to admit to error. On top of this, senior doctors predict a future bereft of professional values - one where medicine is 'just a job'. While the loss of professional identity introduces new risks for patients and doctors, the repercussions of the more self-serving attitudes of younger doctors are unknown. Reconstructing Medical Practice concludes that regulation, despite its recent proliferation, is a clumsy and limited approach to ensuring good care. It presents original and much-needed ideas for ways to rebuild the critical relationship between doctors and the system. By better valuing communicative interactions and workplace relationships, safe and satisfying medical practice can be reconstructed.

Download or read book From DOA to a New Purpose This Book written by Kathy Mendenhall and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From DOA to a New Purpose begins with a background of who I was, leading up to the day of my stroke. Thus, the book actually begins explaining how good God was to my family as He saved my life and gave me the purpose of writing my experience that it might encourage others hearing about the trials I was able to overcome because I love Jesus and more importantly because He loves me always. Through a long series of struggles, He taught me that he was always there and that trusting Him made life easier and worth living in spite of the pain and difficulties. He enabled me to see brightness through a very dark experience. I would have given up if He had not been with me and miraculously provided the right people at all the right times. Hopefully this book will encourage those going through tough times and those that need to be used by God to encourage others.
