It covers the history and evolution of violence in emergency departments and offers excellent exhibits for quick reference..." --Doody's Violence in the emergency department (ED) is a critical, even life-threatening problem facing ED nurses and physicians daily. Emergency room personnel have repeatedly reported being threatened, harassed, and seriously injured by hostile patients, including psychiatrically ill patients, substance abusers, and criminals, as well as by patients' families and friends.

This book educates health care professionals and hospital administrators about all aspects of ED violence. The author provides all the essential tools and strategies for preventing violence before it starts, and managing it if it occurs. In this book, Allen provides practical guidelines for assessing the potential risk of violence in the ED and implementing a violence defense strategy and program. Key topics discussed: How to assess the potential risk of violence in individual patients How to identify the types of patients that are most likely to be violent in the ED and why they are violent How to plan and implement a violence defense program by increasing security, charging penalties and fines, announcing hospital-wide alerts, and more How to improve communication strategies with both colleagues and violent patients in the ED How to increase awareness of the the significant problem of lateral violence among healthcare personnel Violence in the Emergency Department will not only help safeguard physicians and nurses from injury, it will serve as one more step toward healing the critical nursing shortage, increasing job satisfaction, and improving patient care.

Book excerpt: PLACE THE POWER OF HEALING IN YOUR HANDS > Are you or a loved one suffering with undiagnosed pain? > Does your doctor rush you out the door in less than 10 minutes after performing a superficial exam? > Does your doctor often interrupt you and not give you adequate time to describe the history of your illness? > Does your doctor only seem interested in treating your symptoms with another prescription and not looking for the underlying cause of your illness? Take back control of your health with these proven tools for solving your own health problems. THE FACTS: > 75% of illnesses are caused by external influences - which are easily recognized and analyzed by you. > Most ailments can be simply diagnosed by examining your problem history and the circumstances surrounding its development - information that you have. > Doctors typically spend only ten minutes examining you, but difficult and intractable problems require a deeper analysis - time that you have. > Most doctors prescribe drugs or surgery to treat your symptoms, which does not address the underlying cause of your problem. > Once you clearly pinpoint the source of your problem, a quick and painless permanent remedy can normally be found by removing the offending source - without drugs or surgery __________________________________________________________ Beginning with a fascinating case study of a patient who suffered for years with an undiagnosed severe illness but who quickly solved it himself following the systematic self-diagnostic process outlined in this book, Be Your Own HEALTH DETECTIVE equips you with proven tools to discover the quickest and least invasive solution to your personal problem.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Their Own Words invites you to become “doctor for a day” and see medical practice from the physicians’ perspective. Drawing on one of the largest physician surveys ever undertaken, “In Their Own Words” offers insights from hundreds of doctors, who reveal in candid comments exactly how they feel about being physicians and why it matters to patients. Read why: Close to half of all doctors plan to opt out of medical practice in the next one to three years, or reduce the number of patients they see. Many physicians are compelled to close their practices to Medicare and other patients. Health reform could reduce access to physicians. Most physicians would not recommend medicine as a career. Many physicians say they are strained to the breaking point. A wake up call for policy makers and the public, “In Their Own Words” reveals why what doctors think about the practice of medicine matters to anyone who cares about the quality and availability of healthcare in America today. If you have ever been a patient or are ever likely to be one, read In Their Own Words.

This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical, quantitative look at the future supply and demand of surgical specialists that may foretell rationing of surgical services. The Coming Shortage of Surgeons: Why They Are Disappearing and What That Means for Our Health is the only quantitative analysis of the workforce in orthopedic and thoracic surgery, otolaryngology, obstetrics and gynecology, general surgery, neurosurgery, and urology. It analyzes the demand and supply for these surgeons and gives the causes and remedies for these shortages. The Coming Shortage of Surgeons quantifies the demand for the surgical workforce, then examines the constraints to supply, which include soaring tuition and medical students' debts, the demand for a controllable or scheduled lifestyle, malpractice premium expenses, early retirement, and perhaps the most difficult hurdle to overcome: the provision in the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 that caps all medical and surgical residencies at 1996 levels.

This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warren G. Magnuson served as U.S. senator from the state of Washington for six terms. The sheer sweep of his accomplishments is astonishing: authoring the 1964 Civil Rights Act, protecting Puget Sound, saving Boeing for Seattle, championing consumer protection legislation, reorganizing the railroads, and godfathering the electrification of the Pacific Northwest by pressing for Columbia and Snake River dams. He pushed for federal aid to education, kept Pentagon budgets down, and established the National Institutes of Health while arguing throughout the McCarthy era against U.S. isolation from China. He was also a whiskey-and-poker companion to Presidents Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, and Johnson.
