Patient's Right: Ethical And Legal Issues In Health Care And Nurs

ARTICLES OF FAITH
$3.98
In Articles of Faith, veteran journalist Cynthia Gorney presents the first balanced political and social narrative of the most significant years in the abortion conflict, told from the perspective of the people who fought the battles on both sides. Focusing on the battle in Missouri, which mirrors the deepening abortion conflicts around the country as American states first begin changing their century-old criminal abortion laws, Gorney draws from more than five hundred interviews and previously unseen archival material to create the first narrative history of the modern American abortion conflict ever written. The central characters, whose evolving personal stories and eventual confrontation in the U.S. Supreme Court form the narrative drive of Articles of Faith, are two passionate, strong-willed leaders from opposing camps in the city of St. Louis: Judith Widdicombe and Samuel Lee. Judith Widdicombe is a registered nurse who runs the abortion underground in Missouri during the illegal-abortion days of the 1960s, and who then goes on after Roe v. Wade to set up almost singlehandedly the first legal abortion clinic in Missouri. Samuel Lee is a young pacifist and would-be seminarian who arrives in St. Louis to begin his formal religious studies and finds himself instead drawn to the more compelling and immediate work of the right-to-life movement. The state of Missouri is an ideal setting for a history of the American abortion wars. Both before and after 1973, when Roe v. Wade forces every state to legalize abortion, the real dramas of the abortion conflict unfold not in Washington, D.C., but in communities across the United States, communities like St. Louis, where Judy Widdicombe and Sam Lee are at the forefront of nearly every episode -- Judy directing her clinic, bankrolling federal lawsuits, co-founding the National Abortion Federation, covering her clinic bulletin boards with political updates, stepping through the smoldering aftermath of a clinic firebombing, and confronting head-on the moral ambiguity of late-trimester abortions; Sam studying intently the philosophical background and moral logic of the right-to-life movement and then joining sit-ins, volunteering for arrest, arguing pacifism versus confrontation with fellow civil disobedients, and eventually serving a long jail sentence for defying a court order barring him from the premises of certain St. Louis abortion clinics. When Sam completes his jail time, he makes what for him is the emotionally difficult transition away from protest and toward legislative lobbying in the Missouri state capital. Their battle culminates in 1989, when the provocative abortion bill Sam eventually lobbies through the Missouri legislature becomes the centerpiece of William L Webster v. Reproductive Health Services -- the most intently watched Supreme Court case of the late 1980s, because it is the very first case to challenge Roe v. Wade directly before what is generally assumed to be an anti-Roe ...

Patient Safety In Health Care Management (adavances In Health Care Man
$129.6
This volume on patient safety revolves around a central question: How can the increased emphasis on patient safety among healthcare managers be translated into better policy and reduced clinical risk? The twelve contributions in this volume are divided between four sections: theoretical perspectives on managing patient safety; top management perspectives on patient safety; health information technology perspectives on patient safety; and organizational behavior and change perspectives on patient safety. The issue of patient safety provides a fertile niche for management researchers to test existing theories and develop new ones.For example, the goal of reducing medical errors while maximizing patient health requires not only an awareness of the tenets of evidence-based medicine, but also the managerial theories of human relations, organizational culture, organizational development, organizational learning, organizational structure, quality improvement, and systems thinking. Indeed, these and other managerial theories are drawn upon and applied by the various contributors. Taken together, the thirty-five authors of this volume demonstrate that the future of patient safety requires healthcare professionals and managers who can successfully engage in multi-faceted projects that are socially and technically complex.

Patient Patients?
$90.48
There is much debate over what motivates individuals who suffer from diabetes seeking greater empowerment over their treatment and life situation. The Swedish Health Law states that patients have the right to full information about their disease and to determine what treatment to receive. This book focuses upon the experiences of members of two diabetes branch organisations involved in prosecuting the empowerment of their members.The extent to which patient organisations exert their rights is explored via extensive surveys and interviews among the membership of two particularly influential Swedish diabetic organisations. In light of all the arguments in favour of empowerment, it is concluded here that the organisations? members were more interested in receiving personal information and socialising with each other than gaining greater influence and empowerment. This finding may partly be due to their confident belief in the Swedish health care system. Whatever the case, it is evident that patients and their organisations still have not yet fully explored the potential for greater empowerment.

The litmus test for a volume such as this rests in asking two questions. Are the articles cogent articulations of current thinking and methodology? Do they serve to both explicate and enrich the subject area? These critera, we can say, are satisfied. This book deserves a strong recommendation as a test and reference for psychopathology. Broad based, the book is written by experts for generalists as well as for those doing clinical work in the given areas... The diversity, clinical coverage, and liveliness of the ideas make this collection stimulating for practitioners and academics alike. Each topic enjoys a robust portrayal. Disorders are place in epidemiological context, their diagnostic features provided, and their most obvious forms illustrated. The often overlooked social impairment or prevention is refreshingly included in many cases, elucidating the implications of the disorders beyond matters of diagnosis and invervention, also covered thoroughly in most cases.-CONTEMPORARY PSYCHOLOGYThe majority of mental health students and professionals would find this book immensely useful... Information is well organized and easily accessible...-DOODY REVIEW SERVICESThe Disorders is a derivative volume of articles pulled from the award-winning Encyclopedia of Mental Health, providing A-to-Z coverage of the many disorders afflicting mental health patients, including alcohol problems, Alzheimer's disease, depression, epilepsy, gambling, obsessive-compulsive disorder, phobias, and suicide.brAccording to 1990 estimates, mental disorders represent five of the ten leading causes of disability.* Among developed nations, including the United States, major depression is the leading cause of disability. Also near the top of these rankings are bipolar depression, alcohol dependence, schizophrenia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. In addition, mental disorders are tragic contributors to mortality, with suicide perennially representing one of the leading preventable causes@^^¸Që…ÿ¾Ûx

The Right Medicine: How to Make Health Care Reform Work Today
$29.5
Can universal health care be obtained at an affordable price today? Drawing on many real-life medical case histories, David Cundiff, MD, and Mary Ellen McCarthy, PhD, develop in this innovative and highly readable book, The Right Medicine, a comprehensive, justly humane, and economically sound plan for the full and effective solution of the terrible crisis in today's American health care system. Here are the key steps that the authors - a practicing oncologist and an experienced health care financial analyst - believe will succeed in providing high-quality, cost effective, universal coverage for all Americans establish a single-payer system, thus avoiding employer mandates and dramatically lowering health care costs by radically downsizing both hospital and insurance bureaucracies; make preventive care a top priority. This will ultimately produce substantial new cost reductions as levels of health improve; establish a national program of local Community Wellness Centers for the coordination and delivery of health promotion and disease prevention services; restore the family physician to the traditional role in the medical system - thus renewing focus on the individual patient and reducing the overuse of specialists; encourage palliative (hospice) care for the terminally ill, thereby providing dignified, pain-free care and eliminating the excessive costs of current high-tech hospital death and establish strong incentives to adopt a healthy lifestyle by radically increasing taxes on alcohol, tobacco, dietary fat, firearms, violent media, and the wasteful uses of fossil fuels - taxes that will repay the heavy health care costs they impose. The Right Medicine proposes an eminently workable win, win, win program that will keep alive the promise of America the public wins with more appropriate and efficacious health care services at lower overall cost; the economy wins with more jobs through community wellness programs and more productive workers and health care workers win with less bureaucracy and more satisfying work. Whatever your position on health care reform, your views will never be the same after reading The Right Medicine. Its commonsense proposals make clear that health care reform is possible only if - beyond all institutional change - we also persuade Americans to become active, responsible partners in their own health care. The programs of The Right Medicine - the only comprehensive, affordable alternative to all the current health care plans - will surely transform our lives.

Patient
$10.38
Written in a style that demonstrates Shua's passion for the written word (and reminds us how much of a joy reading can truly be), Patient is the gripping tale of a man lost in the bureaucratic workings of a state mental health facility. Anticipating only a brief stay for minor testing, he soon realizes that leaving the hospital will not be such a simple task. With expertly rendered black humor and irony, this lively narrative draws us into a satire of the state mental health care system and a powerful metaphor for the human condition.

Excerpt: Gil Jordan after a while went way off to some other place, and this boy Buckner's mother, as I was tellin' about, gettin' very poorly in health, bound him till twenty-one to that same butcher, Murdock, on condition his master should give her dog-meat and so forth to keep her alive as long as she lived. Murdock's spite was green as ever, and he now had the boy in such a fix that he could do what he pleased with him. The way he treated him was a caution. All butchers' boys, I reckon, are used to hard times, but others live on loaf- bread and buttermilk compared to him. What with the work, and the starvation, and the unpitiful beatings, he would have run away but on account of his weakly, afflicted mother. After a while he got a chance to send word by a drover's boy to Mr. Jordan about how he was abused. Buckner, to be sure, had little hope of any attention being paid to it -- for what was a shrivelled wretch of a lad to one like Gil? But what do you think? Gil Jordan, as soon as he heard the account, came right back, a hundred and fifty miles, to see justice done. He went to the slaughter-house. There was Murdock and his brother -- as stout a man as he was, and a big hired fellow besides; all three got at Gil. Then he showed what he could do. First he pitched his fist into the brother's cheek, and laid him out as stiff as dead. The hired man came at him with the cleaver. He wrenches it out of his hand, and, when the chap runs, slings it after him so true that the handle struck him betwixt the shoulders, and that was another off the track. Last, he turned to Murdock ...

Preventing Patient Falls
$58.98
Every hospital and nursing home must face the problem of patient falls. Not only are the patients at risk for serious injury, but the institution must deal with the financial liability that can result from these accidents. Preventing Patient Falls is the culmination of Janice M. Morse's eight years of research into patient falls and what can be done to prevent them. The book presents the authoritative Morse Fall Scale for predicting the likelihood of a patient falling and, more important, how it can be implemented in a comprehensive fall prevention program. Morse addresses the issues of creating a safe institutional environment, measuring the fall and resulting injury rates in institutions, and the use and effectiveness of patient restraints, bed alarms, and safer beds. Nurses and other clinicians as well as administrators of health care facilities will find the transfer of this top-of-the-line research into direct practice to be invaluable. Nursing and health care researchers will also find Morse's expanded discussion of her Fall Scale a useful resource.

Practical Patient Safety
$52.13
Following recent high profile cases of surgical error in the Uk and USA, patient safety has become a key issue in healthcare, now placed at the heart of junior doctor''s training. Errors made by doctors are very similar to those made in other high risk organizations, such as aviation, nuclear and petrochemical industries. Practical Patient Safety aims to demonstrate how core principles of safety from these industries can be applied in surgical and medical practice, in particular through training for health care professionals and healthcare managers. While theoretical aspects of risk management form the backdrop, the book focuses on key techniques and principles of patient safety in a practical way, giving the reader practical advice on how to avoid personal errors, and more importantly, how to start patient safety training within his or her department or hospital.

Clinical Handbook of Co-exist Mental Health and Drug Alcohol Problems
$52.48
Co-existing mental health and drug and alcohol problems occur frequently in primary care and clinical settings. Despite this, health professionals rarely receive training in how to detect, assess and formulate interventions for co-existing problems and few clinical guidelines exist.This Handbook provides an exciting and highly useful addition to this area. Leading clinicians from the UK, the US and Australia provide practical descriptions of assessments and interventions for co-existing problems. These will enable professionals working with co-existing problems to understand best practice and ensure that people with co-existing problems receive optimal treatment. A range of overarching approaches are covered, including: working within a cognitive behavioural framework; provision of consultation-liaison services, training and supervision; individual, group and family interventions; and working with rurally isolated populations.The contributors also provide detailed descriptions of assessments and treatments for a range of disorders when accompanied by drug and alcohol problems, including anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and learning difficulties. The Clinical Handbook of Co-existing Mental Health and Drug and Alcohol Problems will enhance clinicians confidence in working with people with co-existing problems. It will prove a valuable resource for all psychologists, psychiatrists, counsellors, social workers and all those working in both primary and secondary care health settings.
