Download or read book Obstetrics and Gynaecology ST1 Interview Book written by Neha Shah and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-06 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speciality applications can be one of the most exciting, but yet nerve wracking times in a doctor's career. It is important that interview stations are approached in the correct manner, so that maximum marks can be scored in a timely fashion. Having recently been successful in the Obstetric and Gynaecology ST1 interviews, we gained an understanding of the common questions and scenarios and how best to approach these. This book aims to pass on the knowledge and skills that we have gained, to help other budding obstetric and gynaecology trainees secure their training posts and join us in this rewarding speciality. The profits from this book will be donated to the "Friends of Nepal Ambulance Service", a charity which provides ambulance services to transport sick and vulnerable patients in rural Nepal. Some of the feedback from our 2016 interview course and resources: "Having not previously done any interview practice since getting into medical school, I was nervous (and clueless) about what to expect for my O&G ST1 interview. However, the resources offered on www.obsandgynae.net were the most comprehensive and useful resource I could've used. It was absolutely fantastic and I could not recommend it enough to prospective applicants for O&G interviews. The scenarios were all extremely realistic and similar to what comes up in the real interviews, and having mock mark schemes really helps when practising with friends." - Priya Paul obtained a training post in Oxford Deanery. "The course was exceptionally well run and organised. The speakers had genuine experience of the interview process and made a real effort to impart all the relevant information. I came away much more confident that I knew what interview preparation would be helpful and it really helped me to focus my time. I also met some people at the course who were applying to the same deanery and we were able to swap numbers and do interview practice together after the course. I would 100% recommend this course: well organised, well run, excellent quality teaching, amazing value for money and knowing that it was non-profit and going to charity is a massive bonus. So thankful to Neha for organising this and for all the volunteers giving up their weekend to help the next year of potential trainees. I was ranked highly in London and think a lot of that is down to this course and being able to prepare systematically. Thank you!" - Rachel Roberts obtained a training post in London Deanery. "Very thorough sessions and great advice, gave me the confidence to perform well in my interview!" - Thivya Sritharan obtained a training post in East Midlands Deanery. "Fantastic course! The course material contained many different interview scenarios, and we were able to take this material home with us, which was really useful and very similar to the real interview." - Simrit Nijjar obtained a training post in London Deanery. "Really useful information & good opportunity to practise interview skills and gain excellent formative feedback. Attending the course was definitely instrumental to me obtaining a training post! The course material was extremely useful with lots of good advice to aid preparation." - Carolann Waddell obtained a training post in Scotland Deanery. "The course was incredibly useful, very practical and the fact that all profits went to charity made it even better!" - Shila Tursini obtained a training post in East of England Deanery.

Download or read book Uncomfortable Labels written by Laura Kate Dale and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2019-07-18 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "So while the assumption when I was born was that I was or would grow up to be a neurotypical heterosexual boy, that whole idea didn't really pan out long term." In this candid, first-of-its-kind memoir, Laura Kate Dale recounts what life is like growing up as a gay trans woman on the autism spectrum. From struggling with sensory processing, managing socially demanding situations and learning social cues and feminine presentation, through to coming out as trans during an autistic meltdown, Laura draws on her personal experiences from life prior to transition and diagnosis, and moving on to the years of self-discovery, to give a unique insight into the nuances of sexuality, gender and autism, and how they intersect. Charting the ups and downs of being autistic and on the LGBT spectrum with searing honesty and humour, this is an empowering, life-affirming read for anyone who's felt they don't fit in.

Download or read book Hearing Happiness written by Jaipreet Virdi and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaving together lyrical history and personal memoir, Virdi powerfully examines society’s—and her own—perception of life as a deaf person in America. At the age of four, Jaipreet Virdi’s world went silent. A severe case of meningitis left her alive but deaf, suddenly treated differently by everyone. Her deafness downplayed by society and doctors, she struggled to “pass” as hearing for most of her life. Countless cures, treatments, and technologies led to dead ends. Never quite deaf enough for the Deaf community or quite hearing enough for the “normal” majority, Virdi was stuck in aural limbo for years. It wasn’t until her thirties, exasperated by problems with new digital hearing aids, that she began to actively assert her deafness and reexamine society’s—and her own—perception of life as a deaf person in America. Through lyrical history and personal memoir, Hearing Happiness raises pivotal questions about deafness in American society and the endless quest for a cure. Taking us from the 1860s up to the present, Virdi combs archives and museums to understand the long history of curious cures: ear trumpets, violet ray apparatuses, vibrating massagers, electrotherapy machines, airplane diving, bloodletting, skull hammering, and many more. Hundreds of procedures and products have promised grand miracles but always failed to deliver a universal cure—a harmful legacy that is still present in contemporary biomedicine. Blending Virdi’s own experiences together with her exploration into the fascinating history of deafness cures, Hearing Happiness is a powerful story that America needs to hear. Praise for Hearing Happiness “In part a critical memoir of her own life, this archival tour de force centers on d/Deafness, and, specifically, the obsessive search for a “cure”. . . . This survey of cure and its politics, framed by disability studies, allows readers—either for the first time or as a stunning example in the field—to think about how notions of remediation are leveraged against the most vulnerable.” —Public Books “Engaging. . . . A sweeping chronology of human deafness fortified with the author’s personal struggles and triumphs.” —Kirkus Reviews “Part memoir, part historical monograph, Virdi’s Hearing Happiness breaks the mold for academic press publications.” —Publishers Weekly “In her insightful book, Virdi probes how society perceives deafness and challenges the idea that a disability is a deficit. . . . [She] powerfully demonstrates how cures for deafness pressure individuals to change, to “be better.” —Washington Post

Download or read book The Medical Interview written by Mack Jr. Lipkin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primary care medicine is the new frontier in medicine. Every nation in the world has recognized the necessity to deliver personal and primary care to its people. This includes first-contact care, care based in a posi tive and caring personal relationship, care by a single healthcare pro vider for the majority of the patient's problems, coordination of all care by the patient's personal provider, advocacy for the patient by the pro vider, the provision of preventive care and psychosocial care, as well as care for episodes of acute and chronic illness. These facets of care work most effectively when they are embedded in a coherent integrated approach. The support for primary care derives from several significant trends. First, technologically based care costs have rocketed beyond reason or availability, occurring in the face of exploding populations and diminish ing real resources in many parts of the world, even in the wealthier nations. Simultaneously, the primary care disciplines-general internal medicine and pediatrics and family medicine-have matured significantly.
