Download or read book Education Scholarship in Healthcare written by April S. Fitzgerald and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic medical centers continue to require evidence of scholarly activity for their faculty to maintain their appointment and to advance in promotion/rank. For some, training to know how to obtain evidence of scholarship was obtained through fellowship where information was passed from mentor to mentee in an apprenticeship fashion without a formalized text to follow to obtain the information. In fellowship, information might flow through word-of-mouth or articles handed down out to a mentee. Others in fellowship develop skills by taking classes as part of an additional master’s degree program such as a Master of Public Health. For health professionals who enter an academic institution without having gone through a fellowship program, they are still expected to perform scholarly activity but don’t have the benefit of having done the apprenticeship to learn the skills, so unless they decide to find a course, obtain a master’s degree, or find a fellowship, they have no way to gain the necessary skills and are at risk of losing their appointment and have no hope of progressing in promotion. This text provides a comprehensive toolbox for the academic who needs these skills to survive. It serves as a valuable resource for health professionals – physicians, nurses, pharmacists, physical therapists, and allied professionals – as well as scientists, and students, with the steps necessary to take their educational endeavors from idea to implementation through dissemination. Beginning with the concept of “What is Scholarship”, the authors walk the reader through the concepts of how to find your niche, look through the literature to check for a gap, design a question, consider evaluation and outcomes, be aware of ethical considerations, plan a project, look for support, find mentorship, prepare an abstract, present a poster, disseminate a project, and lead a team. All chapters are written by experts in the subject matter.
Download or read book In the Nation s Compelling Interest written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-06-29 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is rapidly transforming into one of the most racially and ethnically diverse nations in the world. Groups commonly referred to as minorities-including Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, African Americans, Hispanics, American Indians, and Alaska Natives-are the fastest growing segments of the population and emerging as the nation's majority. Despite the rapid growth of racial and ethnic minority groups, their representation among the nation's health professionals has grown only modestly in the past 25 years. This alarming disparity has prompted the recent creation of initiatives to increase diversity in health professions. In the Nation's Compelling Interest considers the benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity, and identifies institutional and policy-level mechanisms to garner broad support among health professions leaders, community members, and other key stakeholders to implement these strategies. Assessing the potential benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity among health professionals will improve the access to and quality of healthcare for all Americans.

Continuing Professional Development in Medicine and Health Care helps you design, deliver, and evaluate evidence-based continuing education and professional development programs with the goal of keeping practitioners' knowledge, skills, attitudes, competencies, and performance current and patient centered. Authored by key thought leaders in the field, including members of the Society of Academic Continuing Medical Education (SACME), the book presents today's most advanced thinking on how to empower clinicians to continuously improve their performance throughout their professional careers. Organized under five critical themes and 28 essential topics, the book's chapters start with cases describing real-world dilemmas; continue with evidence-based theories, solutions, and/or resources; and close with "future directions" and contemporary reference lists. Use continuing education to transform the delivery of care - with multidisciplinary guidance that draws on theoretical frameworks and evolving evidence from engineering, neuroscience, education, organization management, sociology, and psychology. Master techniques for maximizing educational benefits (learning, administrative, and otherwise) - from the evolution of core competencies to advances in simulation. Access evidence-informed techniques for providing realistic, personal needs assessments to improve health outcomes. Accommodate needs for education that are more flexible, efficient, effective, and accessible, with less need to travel. Promote evolving new competencies in clinician-patient communication and clinician cultural awareness. Explore methods for conducting research to measure the degree of effectiveness in professional education. In an era of rapidly changing health systems, anyone responsible for improving health professionals' continuing professional development is strongly encouraged to take advantage of the guidance within Continuing Professional Development in Medicine and Health Care.
