Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report sets out the findings and recommendations of the private inquiry into how the NHS dealt with complaints relating to the practice and conduct of two consultant psychiatrists, William Kerr and Michael Haslam, who worked in the same psychiatric hospital in North Yorkshire during the 1970s and 1980s, and who were both were later convicted of the indecent assault of female psychiatric patients. The two-volume report examines a range of issues including: i) background events including the range of concerns considered in the provision of mental health services, the conduct of the inquiry and the report in context; ii) detailed examination of the complaints against William Kerr and Michael Haslam, the NHS procedures then in place for raising concerns about healthcare professionals and actions taken in response to concerns; iii) the actions of particular GPs and the response of the GP community at large; iv) contributing factors which acted as a barrier to appropriate investigation and action, including organisational and structural issues, the prevailing medical culture and lack of a governance process, problems of professional practice and individual failings; and v) changes since the 1990s and recommendations for improvements in future practice.
Book Synopsis Medical Self-Regulation by : Mark Davies
Download or read book Medical Self-Regulation written by Mark Davies and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-regulation constitutes an important aspect of the regulatory and oversight process governing professionals. This book focuses directly on medical self-regulation in the context of both the wider regulatory framework and that of other regulatory models. Through a critical consideration of recent events, including high-profile and controversial cases, it is demonstrated that the self-regulatory process has failed and that only fundamental restructuring and a radical change in attitudes on the part of members of the profession can repair the damage. Attention is also given to the recent changes, current proposals for change and to alternative regulatory models. Medical Self-Regulation will be of international interest, appealing to policy makers, as well as students and practitioners in the fields of medicine, medical law and sociology and professional regulation.
Book Synopsis No-Fault Approaches in the NHS by : Sonia Macleod
Download or read book No-Fault Approaches in the NHS written by Sonia Macleod and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-12 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how concerns can be raised about the NHS, why raising concerns hasn't always improved standards, and how a no-fault open culture approach could drive improvements. The book describes a wide range of mechanisms for raising concerns about the NHS, including complaints, the ombudsman, litigation, HSIB, and the major inquiries since 2000, across the various UK jurisdictions. The NHS approach is contextualised within the broader societal developments in dispute resolution, accountability, and regulation. The authors take a holistic view, and outline practical solutions for reforming how the NHS responds to problems. These should improve the situation for those raising concerns and for those working within the NHS, as well as providing cost savings. The no-fault approaches proposed in the book provide long-term sustainable solutions to systemic problems, which are particularly timely given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the NHS. The book will be of interest to academics, researchers, ADR practitioners, practising lawyers, and policy makers.
Book Synopsis Gossip and Organizations by : Kathryn Waddington
Download or read book Gossip and Organizations written by Kathryn Waddington and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gossip is a complex and ubiquitous phenomenon, widely found and variously practiced. Gossip and Organizations provides the reader with an analysis of gossip and informal knowledge across different national, organizational and cultural contexts, drawing upon empirical findings and the author's experiences of researching gossip in nursing and healthcare organizations and higher educational institutions. Kathryn Waddington aims to dispel once and for all the myth that women gossip and men have conversations, shattering the illusion that gossip at work is trivial talk. This book challenges the assumption that gossip is a problem that should be discouraged. While there is undoubtedly a dark side to gossip, Kathryn Waddington argues that paying closer attention to gossip as organizational communication and knowledge enables exploration of other ways of seeing, interpreting and understanding organizations. Gossip is not merely an impediment of organizing, it is a form of organizing which shapes perceptions and actions, and can forewarn managers of future failure in organizational systems. The complexity of gossip is such that a of range inter-disciplinary explanations is necessary in order to account for this form of communication and knowledge across multiple levels and spaces in and around organizations. Waddington provides a new evidence-based framework incorporating ethics, emotion, identity, sensemaking and power as a guide future research, theorizing and critical reflective and reflexive practice in the field of organizational gossip.
Book Synopsis Sexual Identities and Sexuality in Social Work by : Priscilla Dunk-West
Download or read book Sexual Identities and Sexuality in Social Work written by Priscilla Dunk-West and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexuality and sexual identity have been relatively marginalized areas in both social work education and practice. However, changes in policy and legislation in the UK and other countries over the past decade have brought discussions of sexuality into the mainstream public service agenda. In social work and social care, gay and lesbian citizenship rights have been explicitly recognised. In the fields of adoption and fostering new regulations and guidance have helped improve and develop practice around assessment and intervention. It remains the case, however, that sex is often perceived as a problem area within social work and social care, discussed only in relation to sexually diverse communities or in the realm of dysfunction or pathology. This collection aims to generate a more proactive and challenging discussion of sexuality and sexual identity in social work. Its starting point is that sexuality is an essential aspect of individual identity, that users must be able to express their sexuality, and that it is essential for social workers to be able to respond and discuss sexual issues appropriately. The contributions are informed by feminist research, considering, in particular, the experiences of women working in and using social care services since the 1990s. In addition to a consideration of the wider policy, legislative and service providers' perspectives, the book includes reflective accounts as well as research-led contributions, offering a comprehensive and balanced account of this important field, which aims to inform both theory and practice.
