Teaching Medical Professionalism
Author: Richard L. Cruess
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139474510
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Until recently professionalism was transmitted by respected role models, a method that depended heavily on the presence of a homogeneous society sharing values. This is no longer true, and medical schools and postgraduate training programs in the developed world are now actively teaching professionalism to students and trainees. In addition, licensing and certifying bodies are attempting to assess the professionalism of practising physicians on an ongoing basis. This is the only book available to provide guidance to those designing and implementing programs on teaching professionalism. It outlines the cognitive base of professionalism, provides a theoretical basis for teaching the subject, gives general principles for establishing programs at various levels (undergraduate, postgraduate, and continuing professional development), and documents the experience of institutions who are leaders in the field. Teaching aids that have been used successfully by contributors are included as an appendix.

Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
Transforming Health Sciences Library Spaces presents first-hand case studies and practical advice on transforming health sciences library spaces in the 21st century. Collected here are the experiences and thoughts of librarians on the transformation of health sciences library spaces. They provide insights into planning, budgeting, collecting, and integrating user feedback, collaborating with leadership and architects and thriving in the good times and the tight times. The book has three main sections: The Realities of Making Virtual Work Library Spaces that Work for Users Library Spaces Working with What They’ve Got These tackle crucial issues including: Identifying and overhauling dated spaces that lack flexibility Gathering information on usage behavior and user feedback in relation to our spaces. Working with feedback to increase satisfaction, and use of the library space with little funds. Removing a large percentage of the physical collection and deciding what to replace it with. Maximizing relationships with stakeholders such as leadership and external departments to transform the library space. Understanding what going 100% virtual means in practice. Managing usage of materials not traditionally well suited to online access.

Contemporary Research Methods in Pharmacy and Health Services
Author: Shane P. Desselle
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0323914268
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 672
Book Description
Emerging methods, as well as best practices in well-used methods, in pharmacy are of great benefit to researchers, graduate students, graduate programs, residents and fellows also in other health science areas. Researchers require a text to assist in the design of experiments to address seemingly age-old problems. New interventions are needed to improve medication adherence, patients' lived experiences in health care, provider-patient relationships, and even various facets of pharmacogenomics. Advances in systems re-engineering can optimize health care practitioners' roles. Contemporary Research Methods in Pharmacy and Health Services includes multi-authored chapters by renowned experts in their field. Chapters cover examples in pharmacy, health services and others transcendent of medical care, following a standardized format, including key research points; valid and invalid assumptions; pitfalls to avoid; applications; and further inquiry. This is a valuable resource for researchers both in academia and corporate R&D, primarily in pharmacy but also in health services, and other health disciplines. Social science researchers and government scientists can also benefit from the reading. - Provides multi-authored chapters by renowned experts in their field - Includes examples for pharmacy and health services and others that are transcendent of medical care - Covers key research points, valid and invalid assumptions, pitfalls to avoid, applications, and further inquiry

Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
Research Methods in the Health Sciences provides clinical and non-clinical health science students with a comprehensive review of the designs and methods most frequently used in the discipline. Rather than preparing them to conduct original research, this text helps students develop a broad working knowledge of research processes across methodologies. Over the course of 10 chapters, students gain a strong understanding of the scientific method, evidence-based practice, deductive and inductive reasoning, ethical issues when conducting research, and the role of literature in the research process. They read about developing research problem statements and purpose statements, and asking sound research questions. Dedicated chapters illuminate how to select the right methodologies to ensure a study is valid, reliable, and trustworthy, how to understand qualitative and quantitative studies, and how to understand mixed methods research. Each chapter features field-tested tips for studying the material according to individual learning styles, as well as activities to help students develop high-order thinking skills. Written to help students develop foundational knowledge in the discipline, Research Methods in Health Sciences is an ideal resource for introductory courses in health science research methods.
