Against the Flow
Author: Bobbie Jacobson
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1805148397
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Bobbie Jacobson’s honest and deeply personal story brings home her passion for preventing ill-health. Not just for individuals, but for whole communities. It is a passion too often thwarted by governments, vested interests and imposed on an obedient health management system. Her personal accounts of the tragedies, comedies, triumphs and setbacks of a woman doctor, partner and mother start deep in the gender wars of the 1970s and move on to a future in public health and family life she never dreamt was possible. She goes backstage to tell untold stories of what really happens in government, the NHS and local communities. Drawing on four decades as an international activist and public health director in London’s East End, she uncovers new truths about how to overcome the Groundhog Day of failed prevention. She sheds new light on tackling the persistent health gap in a future pandemic. Her stories show what really can be achieved when public health teams work hand in glove with local communities.

Human Factors in Healthcare
Author: Debbie Rosenorn-Lanng
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191649562
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
The majority of errors, litigation, and complaints in the health service are due to 'human factors', yet the term is still not widely understood and is sometimes used interchangeably to refer to team training or communication skills. Although including these, the subject of 'human factors' goes far beyond this to look at systems, environmental influences, and interactions with equipment, in addition to self-awareness and human interaction. All of these aspects are captured in Human Factors in Healthcare and are built into a new framework: the SHEEP model, which breaks down into five key areas: Systems, Human Interaction, Environment, Equipment, and Personal, providing a structured way to focus on adopting 'safety positive' behaviours. Written in a clear and engaging way, the book is ideal for clinicians and non-clinicians alike. Through the use of relevant real world healthcare examples and exercises the book encourages interaction and thinking, as well as illustrating how mistakes can be avoided. The book also sets out ways on how to improve the experience of patients and staff across healthcare, in particular focusing on how to improve patient safety. In light of regular news reports about patient care, Human Factors in Healthcare presents a timely and proactive approach to these issues and is essential reading for doctors, nurses, managers, and everyone working in the healthcare profession.

Pathways of Care in Vascular Surgery
Author: Jonathan D. Beard
Publisher: Tfm Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
This book describes recent developments and best practice in vascular surgery, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary care pathways. It is based upon the presentations to be made at a symposium to be held in Sheffield, England later this month, which has as its aim the improvement of the provision and equality of care for patients with peripheral arterial and venous disease. Contributions have come from vascular surgeons, anesthetists, radiologists, nurses and vascular technologists. Five sections cover the main areas of management of patients with peripheral vascular disease; outpatients and medical management; vascular imaging and endovascular intervention; vascular surgery; anesthesia and operating rooms; and organizational aspects of care. It focuses on the most important aspects of care rather than the comprehensive approach of larger (and more expensive) textbooks. Each chapter describes a care pathway based on pragmatism and the evidence, where available. Each chapter lists one or more books for further reading rather than exhaustive references. It uses a simplified classification of grading evidence and recommendations for use with clinical guidelines, which is referenced in the text by the appropriate bold numeral or letter in brackets. Jonathan Beard is a consultant vascular surgeon at the Sheffield Vascular Institute, Chairman of the JVRG, and has extensive experience of editing vascular textbooks as well as the European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery. Shelagh Murray is a senior clinical nurse in vascular surgery at St George's Hospital London, President of the Society of Vascular Nurses, and has edited a textbook of vascular nursing.

Core Topics in General & Emergency Surgery E-Book
Author: Simon Paterson-Brown
Publisher: Elsevier Health Sciences
ISBN: 0702049727
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 387
Book Description
Core Topics in General & Emergency Surgery meets the needs of surgeons in higher training and practising consultants for a contemporary and evidence-based account of this sub-specialty that is relevant to their general surgical practice. It is a practical reference source incorporating the most current information on recent developments, management issues and operative procedures. The text is thoroughly referenced and supported by evidence-based recommendations wherever possible, distinguishing between strong evidence to support a conclusion, and evidence suggesting that a recommendation can be reached on the balance of probabilities. This is a title in the Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice series whose eight volumes are an established and highly regarded source of information for the specialist general surgeon. The Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice series provides a current and concise summary of the key topics within each major surgical sub-specialty. Each volume highlights evidence-based practice both in the text and within the extensive list of references at the end of every chapter. An expanded authorship team across the series includes additional European and World experts with an increased emphasis on global practice. The contents of the series have been extensively revised in line with recently published evidence. The volume contains a new chapter on the complications of bariatric surgery. This updated text will appeal to all General Surgeons who wish to keep up to date in both elective and emergency conditions, while providing the relevant information for the Specialist Surgeon who is still required to look after undifferentiated emergencies and carry out routine elective general surgical procedures.
