Abstract

This is a book for practitioners working in community-based healthcare as well as educators of future practitioners and researchers exploring this practice field and for people with chronic disabilities and their families and carers. The book invites readers to re-think and re-shape the way that community-based healthcare is practised by practitioners and experienced/engaged with by clients/patients and their families and other carers. Based on a PhD study of therapeutic relationships in community healthcare settings in NSW, Australia, and on real-life experiences of practitioners, clients and clients’ families and care givers, this book paints a rich picture of the lived experiences of these participants in community-based healthcare. It examines the issues and challenges they face and the ways they deal with these. Key themes identified across the book are: the value and nature of relationships in this unique healthcare setting, the importance of time and using it well, the way good teamwork facilitates good community-based, patient-centred healthcare, balancing autonomy and equality with healthcare quality, practice wisdom embodied in healthcare, and ways of improving healthcare in clients’ own homes.

Abstract

Im Rahmen neuroonkologischer Gespräche dient das MRT-Gerät den Ärzten als primäre diagnostische Grundlage, da es bei diesem Krankheitstyp keine einheitlichen Symptome gibt und der direkte Blick auf die ursächliche Läsion versperrt ist. Fokus dieser gesprächslinguistischen Studie ist die analytische Erfassung des für diese Gespräche konstitutiven Moments der Unsicherheit, welches u.a. durch die ständige Anwesenheit von technischen Apparaten evoziert wird. Grundlage der Analyse sind über 140 Arzt-Patient-Gespräche, aufgenommen in der neuroonkologischen Ambulanz eines Uniklinikums. Bei der Auswertung des Datenkorpus werden Latours Akteur-Netzwerk-Theorie, Clarkes Situationsanlyse sowie Flecks Denkstilkonzept gesprächsanalytisch genutzt. Entsprechend werden die beteiligten situativen und diskursiven Akteure als gleichrangig handelnde Partner betrachtet. Die Untersuchung zeigt, wie trotz der vorliegenden Unsicherheiten Vertrauen aufgebaut werden kann. Denn obwohl der Arzt Entscheidungen auf Basis von unsicherem Wissen treffen muss, vermag er durch seine erfahrungs- und denkstilbasierte Analyse des Netzwerkes die Situation und das apparativ gewonnene Wissen partiell zu sichern.

Abstract

With the proliferation of research studies posted online, media outlets scrambling to pick up stories, and individuals posting unverified information via social media, the landscape for parents trying to understand the latest science as it pertains to their children has never been more challenging to navigate. This book is intended to assist pediatricians when discussing research findings with parents. It provides an overview of research practices and terminology, clarifies misconceptions about studies and findings, and explains the limitations of research when applied to medical decision making. Through this framework, physicians can explain their reasoning behind specific clinical recommendations. In addition to examining the broad concepts comprising research literacy, this book reviews the current findings in topics that pediatricians report discussing most often with parents, such as vaccines, diet, medications, and sleep. Pediatrician’s Guide to Discussing Research with Patients is a unique resource for pediatricians in encouraging the development of research literacy in their patients.

Abstract

With over forty years of experience as a sought after diagnostician, Dr. Stuart Mushlin has cracked his share of medical mysteries, ones in which there are bigger gambles than playing the ponies at the track. Some of his patients show up with puzzling symptoms, calling for savvy medical detective work. Others seem to present cut-and-dry cases, but they turn out to be suffering from rare or serious conditions. In Playing the Ponies and Other Medical Mysteries Solved, Dr. Mushlin shares some of the most intriguing cases he has encountered, revealing the twists and turns of each patient's diagnosis and treatment process. Along the way, he imparts the secrets to his success as a medical detective-not specialized high-tech equipment, but time-honored techniques like closely observing, touching, and listening to patients. He also candidly describes cases where he got things wrong, providing readers with honest insights into both the joys and dilemmas of his job. Dr. Mushlin does not just treat diseases; he treats people. And this is not just a book about the ailments he diagnosed; it is also about the scared, uncertain, ailing individuals he helped in the process. Filled with real-life medical stories you'll have to read to believe, Playing the Ponies is both a suspenseful page-turner and a heartfelt reflection on a life spent caring for patients.

Abstract

Patients-partenaires, patients-experts, patients-intervenants dans l'éducation thérapeutique de leurs pairs, patients-enseignants… Le rôle grandissant des patients dans le système de santé questionne, tant sur les fondements de ce phénomène que sur les modalités pratiques de leur engagement. Le slogan associatif « Rien sur nous, sans nous » inscrit ce mouvement dans une revendication morale. C'est aussi lui faire justice que de présenter son intérêt pour la qualité du système de santé. L'engagement des patients dans le système de soins sert de levier supplémentaire à la qualité des soins, à partir de différents constats : les actions verticales ne fonctionnent pas, l'expérience des soins des patients peut servir à améliorer les parcours de soins, leur parole a une légitimité particulière auprès des autres malades. Enfin, leurs savoirs situés et leur perspective singulière permettent de concevoir des actions de santé innovantes, ou plus pertinentes au regard des attentes des malades. Ainsi, des patients engagés participent aux actions de prévention en santé, aux soins de leurs pairs, aux recherches, à la formation des médecins. Dans certains champs, leur participation devient un critère de qualité des actions de santé. Cet ouvrage décrit le processus sociohistorique dans lequel s'inscrit le mouvement de l'engagement des patients. Il dresse un panorama des expériences étrangères et françaises et un état des recherches. Il contient de nombreuses références bibliographiques utiles au milieu scientifique et estudiantin, et apporte des éléments de compréhension et des conseils pratiques de mise en oeuvre aux acteurs de terrain.

Abstract

This progressive resource brings the innovative power of narrative medicine to the forefront of community public health care. Chapters describe community involvement across a continuum of control, from health consultants describing problems and suggesting solutions to health committees designing programs and evaluating results. Narrative strategies to this end, including authentic dialogue and community mapping, are examined in the context of public health and fleshed out with examples of different levels of participation by community members. From the respectful collaboration modeled here, the principles of community public health care can potentially expand beyond the immediate community into other social domains on a greater scale. Included in the coverage: Narratives, local knowledge, and world entry. Community and narratives. What is dialogue? Storylines, causes, and locus of interventions. Community mapping tells a story. The politics of storytelling. Narrative Medicine and Community-Based Health Care and Planning  gives health psychologists, sociologists, social workers, and public health administrators realistic practical insights for tapping into the unique resources communities and clients have to offer. This is the next step in the evolution of public health, toward large-scale improvements in care delivery, access to and relevance of services, and patient and community outcomes.
