Book excerpt: The biggest problem in American health care is us Do you know how to tell good health care from bad health care? Guess again. As patients, we wrongly assume the "best" care is dependent mainly on the newest medications, the most complex treatments, and the smartest doctors. But Americans look for health-care solutions in the wrong places. For example, hundreds of thousands of lives could be saved each year if doctors reduced common errors and maximized preventive medicine. For Dr. Robert Pearl, these kinds of mistakes are a matter of professional importance, but also personal significance: he lost his own father due in part to poor communication and treatment planning by doctors. And consumers make costly mistakes too: we demand modern information technology from our banks, airlines, and retailers, but we passively accept last century's technology in our health care. Solving the challenges of health care starts with understanding these problems. Mistreated explains why subconscious misperceptions are so common in medicine, and shows how modifying the structure, technology, financing, and leadership of American health care could radically improve quality outcomes. This important book proves we can overcome our fears and faulty assumptions, and provides a roadmap for a better, healthier future.

Download or read book Elder Mistreatment written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-02-06 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1970s when Congressman Claude Pepper held widely publicized hearings on the mistreatment of the elderly, policy makers and practitioners have sought ways to protect older Americans from physical, psychological, and financial abuse. Yet, during the last 20 years fewer than 50 articles have addressed the shameful problem that abusersâ€"and sometimes the abused themselvesâ€"want to conceal. Elder Mistreatment in an Aging America takes a giant step toward broadening our understanding of the mistreatment of the elderly and recommends specific research and funding strategies that can be used to deepen it. The book includes a discussion of the conceptual, methodological, and logistical issues needed to create a solid research base as well as the ethical concerns that must be considered when working with older subjects. It also looks at problems in determination of a report's reliability and the role of physicians, EMTs, and others who are among the first to recognize situations of mistreatment. Elder Mistreatment in an Aging America will be of interest to anyone concerned about the elderly and ways to intervene when abuse is suspected, including family members, caregivers, and advocates for the elderly. It will also be of interest to researchers, research sponsors, and policy makers who need to know how to advance our knowledge of this problem.

Download or read book Ageism and Mistreatment of Older Workers written by Patricia Brownell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-11 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book promotes an understanding of ageism, discrimination and mistreatment of older adult workers, incorporating an international human rights perspective. The impact of ageism on the mistreatment of older adult workers has not to date been examined in depth through the lens of international human rights instruments, nor has discrimination against older adults in the workplace been framed as a form of elder abuse for research and policy making purposes. This book presents a multi-disciplinary exploration of these themes as they affect work and retirement of older adults. It reflects the view that older people who choose to work into old age should be able to do so in enabling work environments that promote dignity and are free of abuse. The contributing authors come from many disciplines, including law, psychology, social work, business, and international affairs. Many are members of the International Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse (INPEA), a non-governmental organization with consultative status at the United Nations, and have devoted their professional careers to increase awareness and understanding of elder abuse in order to prevent it. The editors hope that broadening the framework within which elder abuse in the workplace is understood will stimulate further research, policy and program development to address this troubling social problem.
Download or read book Unequal Treatment written by Eileen Nechas and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Unequal Treatment is an eye-opening book that will inform and anger readers who are interested in one of today's hottest issues - women's health. It is a thoroughly researched expose of the way women are treated by doctors, medical researchers, and the people who control the money that goes into funding medical research and health programs. Whether in the case of a medical school professor who inserts slides of centerfold models into his anatomy lectures, or of a female intern who was labeled as crazy by her supervisor because she questioned his methods and stood up for herself, or of a Rockefeller University project that explored the impact of obesity on the tendency for women to develop breast or endometrial cancer, but used only men in the study, the authors have found pervasive, institutionalized prejudice against women in medicine." "Eileen Nechas and Denise Foley reveal some startling information that uncovers the deplorable state of women's health care today, and will inspire women to challenge the quality of the health care they receive and take action against the legislators and institutions that promote and maintain the antifeminine bias in medicine today." "In research clinics, medical schools, and doctors' offices, women are not getting the treatment they need or deserve." "Based on interviews and a thorough review of the medical literature, this timely book puts women's health care, the feminist issue of the nineties, into clear perspective."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
