Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Healthcare has suffered from a series of scandals where trust and patient confidence has been questioned. This timely book examines recent case studies involving every aspect of healthcare provision including the Shipman and Alder Hey cases. It shows how positive lessons can be learnt from these experiences to improve health and healthcare. The contributors offer practical advice based on their extensive and broad experience on how to regain trust between patient and practitioner following these difficulties. They demonstrate how doctors and other healthcare professionals can introduce ways to reduce error and mistrust and describe how to work better with press the public and patients. It is essential reading for all healthcare professionals policy makers shapers and commentators and those representing patient groups. 'The context of this volume is clear - the Bristol paediatric cardiac surgery debacle the Alder Hey scandal around retention and use of dead children's organs without consent and the Harold Shipman murders largely of elderly women in their own homes by their own GP. No surprise then that a first analysis suggests a breakdown of trust. But what the various authors argue for in this volume is both a more careful commentary and a series of complex responses. Real change is gradual a response to a narrative rather than to a single shock to the system. Professional leadership cross-disciplinary working with patients and the public is what will rebuild trust trust based on honesty on listening and on a strong sense of shared values. But it is possible and desirable. The authors have hit on what is 'essentially the 'way through this'!' Julia Neuberger in the Foreword

Download or read book Pivot written by Ginny Hegarty and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Can't I just do the dentistry?" For over 25 years this is, hands down, the question dentists ask me most often. "I just want to do the dentistry and not have to get involved in all the other aspects of running a practice." Most dentists go into practice because they love the clinical challenge. Their joy is in mastering the technique, incorporating the coolest technology, improving the patient experience and in achieving top-notch clinical results. However, what they find once they get into practice is that they are running a small business and taking on many roles, CEO, CFO, CTO, let's face it, some days you're the entire C-Suite as well as chief cook and bottle washer! Dental schools don't focus on how to run the business side of a practice. The eager dentist finds they have to hire and then train, develop, engage and retain employees, learn and then coach the best practices for productive scheduling while supporting the team and the patients ethically and emotionally. That is where Ginny Hegarty's book, Pivot, can help. In her book, Ginny explains the innovative, lean business definition of pivot is to change strategy without changing vision. She explains that doctors can pivot to show their team the way to success. She wrote this book to help dentists learn to lead the team and create a culture that serves your purpose and passion with profitability following. Ginny's wish is that this book will lead dentists to a new understanding of the power they have to create the practice they've always dreamed of. She hopes this book kick starts a new level of success and joy in the reader's practice and life!
