Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: See the world through a patient’s eyes…from other side of illness. Pause to see the world beyond the scientific and clinical. Each chapter in the book provides a brief memoir recounting an experience of illness, written either by the patient, a member of the patient’s family, or an advocate for the patient within the medical, legal, or judicial system. As you share their experiences, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the importance of holistic, patient-centered care. Reviews of the 1st Edition… “...powerful stories...shed light on care giving, spiritual growth, altered self-concept and other aspects of chronic illness.”—ALS Newsletter on the Web “...speak about the most important things clearly, strongly as possible...to do anything else is precious waste of time.”—UMass Magazine “...these accounts...are deep reflections about living with afflictions, relationships, and interactions with the healthcare system.”—Nursing Spectrum "The Patient's Voice: Experiences of Illness is an outstanding collection of autobiographical essays. The 16 narratives, solicited specifically for this book, are skilfully written by both children and adults. The narratives themselves are intensely personal and powerful accounts of self understanding and human triumph over acute physical and psychiatric illness, and chronic disability. As the author notes in her preface, the contributors to The Patient's Voice are "known for their writing ability and the quality of their perceptions" (p. ix).This is a modest description, however, for the contributors are talented writers indeed."- Cathy Lysack, Wayne State University, Detroit MI

Download or read book Patient voices in Britain 1840 1948 written by Anne Hanley and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians have long engaged with Roy Porter’s call for histories that incorporate patients’ voices and experiences. But despite concerted methodological efforts, there has simply not been the degree and breadth of innovation that Porter envisaged. Patients’ voices still often remain obscured. This has resulted in part from assumptions about the limitations of archives, many of which are formed of institutional records written from the perspective of health professionals. Patient voices in Britain repositions patient experiences at the centre of healthcare history, using new types of sources and reading familiar sources in new ways. Focusing on military medicine, Poor Law medicine, disability, psychiatry and sexual health, this collection encourages historians to tackle the ethical challenges of using archival material and to think more carefully about how their work might speak to persistent health inequalities and challenges in health-service delivery.

Download or read book Voice and Communication in Transgender and Gender Diverse Individuals written by Mark S. Courey and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book serves as a guide to any patient, clinician, or person who desires to understand how transgender and gender diverse individuals can be assisted in achieving voice and communication congruity with gender. Voice and communication style serve as intricate links to one’s identity and are central aspects of the gender transition process. Guiding a transgender or gender diverse patient through this transition is complex, requiring an understanding of the patient’s desires, the ability to identify and work with patients to achieve sustainable patterns of behavioral modification that affect voice in a positive manner, and an understanding of the role of newly emerging surgical techniques. This is best addressed by an interdisciplinary team, and this book makes this material available in one source. The first section of the book consists of introductory chapters written by primary care physicians, endocrinologists, and psychiatrists addressing the complex nature of transition from the medical standpoint. A review of hormonal replacement therapies, psychological evaluations, and potential effects of hormone replacement on voice is included. The second section describes the behavioral techniques available in speech and voice therapy for voice change and addresses outcomes that can be expected from behavioral intervention. Each chapter addresses the physiologic principles of therapeutic techniques for effecting change, techniques of instruction, nuances for transgender and gender diverse patients, methods of generalization, and methods of maintenance. Finally, the third section of the book details the surgical techniques available to assist patients in voice transition and their expected outcomes for voice modification. Each chapter includes an introduction, preoperative assessment, role of preoperative therapy, surgical technique, postoperative management, and expected outcome. This section also includes a surgical atlas. This is an ideal guide for otolaryngologists, speech-language pathologists, primary care providers, as well as psychiatrists and endocrinologists caring for transgender and gender nonconforming patients.
