Abstract

Enormous advances have been made in the care of tiny babies. Continued existence, however, is sometimes not in their own best interests. For staff in Neonatal Units, already carrying out demanding work, decisions about which babies to treat intensively are particularly difficult and stressful to make. This book allows us to see how they decide and how they manage such cases. The facts come from a rigorous study carried out by two researchers, both heath care professionals. One of them, Dr Hazel McHaffie, spent months in six large Neonatal Units watching and listening to the doctors and nurses. We hear them describe their innermost feelings and doubts. We also see the tensions and conflicts of the real life situations where personalities and strong beliefs clash. There are no easy answers but this insight into the complexity of life and death decisions helps us to understand the questions and the dilemmas. The book reveals: the innermost feelings and doubts of staff having to make these stresful decisions; the agonies and complexities of having to make life and death decisions; and real-life situation conflict where personalities and strong beliefs clash.The purpose of the book is to help the reader understand the questions and dilemmas surrounding this very emotive subject. For staff in Neonatal Units decisions about which babies to treat intensively are difficult and stressful to make. This book allows us to see how they decide and how they manage such cases. It shows the feelings and doubts of staff having to make these decisions; and real-life situation conflict where personalities and strong beliefs clash.

Abstract

Health care in the US is facing a crisis, but there is polarization and disagreement among policy makers and the public about how to solve this crisis. The overall outcome is ranked much lower than most developed nations and nearly 50 million people are uninsured. Health care is big business and is 17 % of the gross domestic product. Inside Health Care highlights the lifesaving nature of neonatal care while shining some light on what can be done to maximize neonatal well being and efficiency in healthcare access and delivery. In this book, health care issues are brought under the lens by physi
