Book Synopsis Crossing the Caring Bridge by : Jan Briddell Stevens
Download or read book Crossing the Caring Bridge written by Jan Briddell Stevens and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making Friends with Death - A True Story Are you terrified of DEATH? Are you or a loved one facing terminal illness? Or perhaps you've already lost someone--and whether it was a long time in coming or a complete shock, it hurts. We will all meet Death at our appointed time, and when that happens, we may see him as a fearful monster. But if we get to know him first, we'll know how to handle his arrival. We may even discover that Death is not the fiend we imagined at all. Crossing the Caring Bridge offers a whole new perspective on Mr. Reaper that may prove to be a life-changing--or rather a DEATH-changing--experience! "I've seen death come. I've seen people who've lost everything to hurricanes. While I've also seen close friends confront cancer and death, I've never been there. I can only imagine the cancer fight as a whitewater rafting trip on the fiercest rapids--but without a raft (never mind the paddles!). If I'm ever in that river, I'll want a guide. Not just any guide. This guide. Jan Briddell Stevens has been there, seen it, felt it, wept over it, and more. Her engaging storytelling style entertains, informs, and challenges. But most importantly, because she is so authentic, it comforts. Nobody needs to navigate their rivers alone." --John Chickering, Storm Recovery Team Leader, UMCOR Early Response Team (Katrina, Irene, Sandy, Irma, Maria)
Book Synopsis Crossing the Caring Bridge - a Journey of Hope and Despair by : Shelly Greer
Download or read book Crossing the Caring Bridge - a Journey of Hope and Despair written by Shelly Greer and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shelly Flammia Greer thought the summer of 2010 would be the glorious beginning to the rest of her life with Phil, her husband of nearly forty years. But after settling into early retirement, she began noticing changes in his behavior. Soon other family members and friends took notice as well. When Shelly realized she was not alone in her observations, she knew Phil needed to see a doctor-a visit that revealed he was terminally ill with a glioblastoma multiforme. What Shelly soon learned was that the diagnosis would bring more questions than answers. All tumors are different. And just as every person is unique, so is each person's journey through illness. From the moment the malignant tumor entered Phil's brain, Shelly began losing the husband she knew and loved-but that didn't stop her from fighting alongside him with every breath he had left. "Crossing the Caring Bridge" is Shelly's candid account of loving and living with someone who is battling for his life. In her raw yet inspiring memoir, she details the treatment plan and her husband's response to it, as well as her own experience as his caregiver, in the hope that sharing their story will offer comfort to others in similar circumstances.

Download or read book Health Professions Education written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Institute of Medicine study Crossing the Quality Chasm (2001) recommended that an interdisciplinary summit be held to further reform of health professions education in order to enhance quality and patient safety. Health Professions Education: A Bridge to Quality is the follow up to that summit, held in June 2002, where 150 participants across disciplines and occupations developed ideas about how to integrate a core set of competencies into health professions education. These core competencies include patient-centered care, interdisciplinary teams, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, and informatics. This book recommends a mix of approaches to health education improvement, including those related to oversight processes, the training environment, research, public reporting, and leadership. Educators, administrators, and health professionals can use this book to help achieve an approach to education that better prepares clinicians to meet both the needs of patients and the requirements of a changing health care system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Second in a series of publications from the Institute of Medicine's Quality of Health Care in America project Today's health care providers have more research findings and more technology available to them than ever before. Yet recent reports have raised serious doubts about the quality of health care in America. Crossing the Quality Chasm makes an urgent call for fundamental change to close the quality gap. This book recommends a sweeping redesign of the American health care system and provides overarching principles for specific direction for policymakers, health care leaders, clinicians, regulators, purchasers, and others. In this comprehensive volume the committee offers: A set of performance expectations for the 21st century health care system. A set of 10 new rules to guide patient-clinician relationships. A suggested organizing framework to better align the incentives inherent in payment and accountability with improvements in quality. Key steps to promote evidence-based practice and strengthen clinical information systems. Analyzing health care organizations as complex systems, Crossing the Quality Chasm also documents the causes of the quality gap, identifies current practices that impede quality care, and explores how systems approaches can be used to implement change.

Book Synopsis So Much to Be Done by : Barbara Brenner
Download or read book So Much to Be Done written by Barbara Brenner and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “What kind of cancer is it?” was the first question Barbara Brenner asked her doctor after hearing that the lump in her breast was malignant. His answer: “You don't need to know that.” Wrong response. Brenner, who was already an activist, made knowing her business and spreading knowledge her mission. The power behind Breast Cancer Action and its transformative Think Before You Pink® campaign, Barbara Brenner brought an abundance of wit, courage, and clarity to the cause and forever changed the conversation. What had been construed as an individual crisis could now be seen for what it was: a pressing concern of public health and social justice, with environmental issues at the center of prevention efforts. Collected in So Much to Be Done, and framed by personal accounts of Barbara and her influential work, Brenner’s columns and blog posts form a chronicle of breast cancer research and health care activism that is as inspiring as it is informative. As she takes on the corporate forces at work in breast cancer research and treatment and in the “pinkwashing” of fund-raising for the cause, Brenner, a self-described hell-raiser, contends with cancer herself, twice, and her words offer understanding and encouragement to all those whose lives are touched by the disease. When Brenner was diagnosed with ALS in 2011, she broadened her critique of health care while also writing about her own experience. Infused with her characteristic moxie, humor, anger, and compassion, these reflections from her last two years provide an in-depth, precisely observed portrayal of what it is to live with a terminal disease and to die on one’s own terms.
