Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical professionalism comprises a set of values, behaviours and relationships that underpin the trust the public has in doctors. This report describes the nature and role of medical professionalism at a time when our healthcare system is undergoing enormous change. Whilst a lack of professionalism is harmful to patient care, the political and cultural environment of health can hamper its exercise. The proposed entry of multiple healthcare providers, the wish for a more equal engagement between patients and professionals, and the burgeoning contribution of science to clinical practice, all impact on medical professionalism. These were among the factors that provided the impetus for the redefinition and description of medical professionalism set out in this report. The report's definition and description have implications across the whole spectrum of medicine. However, six major themes emerged where medical professionalism will have significant implications. These are: leadership, team working, education, career pathways, appraisal and research. Each of these themes carries recommendations directed to national agencies with an essential part to play in taking them forward. [Ed.]

This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Health Service, or NHS, is the United Kingdom’s national healthcare system. It oversees the public’s health and ensures the medical wellbeing of the population of the UK. Governance network processes are complex because of the different nature of agendas and strategies of actors involved in health, but increasingly, because of the link between social and healthcare delivery, recent initiatives to provide a joined up or integrated approach have been presented. However, the extent of joined-up governance processes in the National Health Service is rather uneven. So far, reforms to try to improve the running of the NHS through the introduction of market mechanisms or increased decentralization have only served to exacerbate such tensions and resulted in further fragmentation of the public health system. The NHS and Contemporary Health Challenges From a Multilevel Perspective illustrates the complexities of governing public health services that are part of the NHS and takes an innovative approach by examining public health provision through a multiscalar lens, which reveals significant limits of the current governance model. The book raises the various challenges that clinical staff, public authorities, and the general public face in the provision of healthcare to uphold core values inherent in health systems. While highlighting topics including health governance, patient satisfaction, and public health, this book is ideally designed for policymakers, government officials, healthcare administrators, hospital managers, healthcare researchers, medical professionals, and students.

This book was released on with total page 1200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good Practice: What it means to put the patient first, not politics, posturing, pretentiousness, protocols or process. This is a text book for all doctors but especially GPs, Appraisers and Registrars. It is written by a 40 year plus front line NHS doctor who for most of his career worked twice to three times the current doctors’ Working Time Directive limited week. Chris Heath has been a Paediatric Lecturer in a teaching hospital, an Anaesthetist, various junior specialists and a GP for over 30 years in 3 different practices. He has been a GP Trainer and Appraiser and has seen politics and political correctness harm patients’ interests constantly over the last half of his career. From the way the NHS selects young doctors to the way they are educated and assessed, the best interests of the patient are largely ignored. This is a text book but it also contains home truths, advice, insights and original, honest guidance on being a safe, effective doctor. As well as giving an assessment of what has gone wrong with the NHS over the last 20 years, the author explains why today’s politicians, medical schools, Royal Colleges and many doctors will resist the changes essential to put the patients’ needs first again. 1 Politics, Who we are, The CQC etc 2 Administration, Training, The Consultation and Teaching 3 Basic Biology 4 Acute Medicine in General Practice 5 Alcohol 6 Allergy 7 Analgesics 8 Anticoagulants, Clotting 9 The Breast 10 Cancer and Terminal Care 11 Cardiology 12 Useful Clinical Signs, Eponymous diseases 13 Dermatology 14 Diabetes, Metabolism 15 Diet, Vitamins and Nutrition 16 Driving 17 Odd drugs 18 Ear, Nose and Throat 19 Gastroenterology 20 Geriatrics 21 Haematology 22 Hormones 23 Immunisation and Vaccines 24 Infections, Antibiotics, Microbiota 25 Legal Issues 26 Liver 27 Miscellaneous 28 Musculoskeletal, Orthopaedics, Sports, NSAIDs 29 Neurology 30 Ophthalmology 31 Paediatrics 32 Pathology 33 Pregnancy, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Contraception 34 Psychiatry and Controlled Drugs 35 Respiratory 36 Sex and STDs 37 Sleep 38 Travel 39 Urology 40 Work References

This book was released on 2005-12-16 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health service human resources are key determinants of health service performance. The human resource is the largest and most expensive input into health care, yet it can be the most challenging to develop. This book examines some of the major challenges facing health care professions in Europe and the potential responses to these challenges. The book analyses how the current regulatory processes and practices related to key aspects of the management of the health professions may facilitate or inhibit the development of effective responses to challenges facing health care systems in Europe. The authors document how health care systems in Europe are confronting existing challenges in relation to the health workforce and identify the strategies that are likely to be most effective in optimizing the management of health professionals in the future. Human Resources for Health in Europe is key reading for health policy makers and postgraduates taking courses in health services management, health policy and health economics. It is also of interest to human resource professionals.

Download or read book Managing NHS Hospital Consultants written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-02-06 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new contract for hospital consultants, introduced in October 2003, delivered many of the expected benefits. This was in exchange for a significant increase in consultants' pay. By 2011-12, there were around 40,000 hospital consultants employed at a cost to the NHS of £5.6 billion, 97 per cent of whom were on the 2003 contract. Of the expected benefits that could be measured, all have been either fully or partly achieved. More could be done, however, to achieve better value for money by fully realising the benefits set out in the Department's business case. Despite, for example, the contract providing a clear structure for paying for additional work at contractual rates, most trusts still use locally agreed rates of pay for additional work outside job plans, which ranges from £48 to £200 per hour. Pay progression is also the norm and not linked to consultant performance. According to an NAO survey, only 41 per cent of consultants thought that their trust motivated them to achieve the trust's objectives. While most trusts monitor consultant performance, only 43 per cent of trusts (27 per cent of consultants) thought that information was good enough to assess individual consultant performance. Trusts also reported that nearly a fifth of consultants have not had an appraisal in the last 12 months. Many trusts are not implementing the good practice job planning guidance published jointly by NHS Employers and the British Medical Association in 2011.
