Resident Duty Hours by Institute of Medicine,Committee on Optimizing Graduate Medical Trainee (Resident) Hours and Work Schedules to Improve Patient Safety Pdf

Medical residents in hospitals are often required to be on duty for long hours. In 2003 the organization overseeing graduate medical education adopted common program requirements to restrict resident workweeks, including limits to an average of 80 hours over 4 weeks and the longest consecutive period of work to 30 hours in order to protect patients and residents from unsafe conditions resulting from excessive fatigue. Resident Duty Hours provides a timely examination of how those requirements were implemented and their impact on safety, education, and the training institutions. An in-depth review of the evidence on sleep and human performance indicated a need to increase opportunities for sleep during residency training to prevent acute and chronic sleep deprivation and minimize the risk of fatigue-related errors. In addition to recommending opportunities for on-duty sleep during long duty periods and breaks for sleep of appropriate lengths between work periods, the committee also recommends enhancements of supervision, appropriate workload, and changes in the work environment to improve conditions for safety and learning. All residents, medical educators, those involved with academic training institutions, specialty societies, professional groups, and consumer/patient safety organizations will find this book useful to advocate for an improved culture of safety.

Medical Mentoring by David Jeffrey Pdf

There is a huge need for supportive mentoring among students, doctors in training and general practitioners. Mentoring is an effective way of supporting doctors and preventing problems. The author argues that all doctors should seek a mentor. Medical training involves transitions; school to university, student to junior doctor and trainee to GP. It is at these transition points that mentoring is most valuable. This book - Medical Mentoring - is a practical guide to using mentoring to help doctors with their professional development, support them when difficulties arise and prevent problems developing. If you're considering mentoring, want to adapt your approach or develop your mentoring skills, this is the book for you. This practical guide, illustrated by case stories will give prospective mentors the confidence to improve student/doctor relationships, defines the role of a medical mentor and the benefits of providing support to doctors and students, discusses reasons why medical students and doctors struggle during their careers, gives practical advice on identifying the student/doctor in difficulty, discusses what students/doctors value in a mentor, and offers a practical guide to mentoring using a clinical model. The book shows how clinical skills can be adapted effectively in mentoring, while acknowledging that mentees are not patients. This guide aims to give prospective mentors the confidence to improve student/doctor support and so will improve recruitment and retention of students and GPs, and enable doctors to deliver more effective patient care.

Making Doctors by Simon Sinclair Pdf

Few outsiders realize that student illness is frequently, and ironically, a by-product of medical training. This unique study by a medical doctor and trained anthropologist debunks popular myths of expertise and authority which surround the medical establishment and asks provoking questions about the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge within the field. In detailing all levels of basic training in a London medical school, the author describes students' 'official' activities (that is, what they need to do to qualify) as well as their 'unofficial' ones (such as their social life in the bar). This insider's exposé should prompt a serious reconsideration of abuses in a profession which has a critical influence over untold lives. In particular, it suggests that the structures and discourses of power need to be re-examined in order to provide satisfactory answers to sensitive questions relating to gender and race, the dialogue between doctor and patient and the mental stability of students under severe stress.

Humanism and Resilience in Residency Training by Ana Hategan,Karen Saperson,Sheila Harms,Heather Waters Pdf

This book aims to help identify pre-existing adaptive traits and positive perspectives in resident trainees, while challenging those that are less adaptive by building a formal curriculum for medical education that focuses on the humanistic aspects of medicine. Humanism in medicine is threatened by the false narrative that good physicians are superhumans who do not have their own needs. Written by experts in the field, this book is designed to be a concise, integrated guide to resilience during residency training. Through this guide, trainees learn (i) the usefulness of psychotherapeutic strategies for their own stress management and well-being; (ii) techniques and strategies that are useful in the practice of medicine; and (iii) to consider lifestyle modifications to improve physical and psychological health and well-being, through identification of positive and negative lifestyle factors influencing physicians’ response to stress. Since it is designed for busy trainees and physicians, this volume meticulously provides easy-to-use, evidence-based learning tools and therapeutic techniques, including case studies, skill-building exercises, self-test questionnaires, illustrations, useful practice-reminder tips, and other features. Humanism and Resilience in Residency Training is an excellent resource for all medical trainees and professionals who need to incorporate humanism and resilience in their practice, both for accreditation requirements and for personal well-being. This includes medical students and residents, psychiatrists, addiction medicine specialists, family physicians, medical education professionals, hospitalists, nurses, and all healthcare providers

Training and Rewards of the Physician by R. Cabot Pdf

The introduction deals with the preparation of the physician. The second part deals in eight chapters with the helps and hindrances in the doctor's development. The following titles of chapters indicate the scope of this section: "Conditions of Failure in Practice"; "Factors of Success"; "The Chance for the City Doctor"; "City Practise versus Country Practise"; Influence of Drugless Healing and Other Special Cults on the Development and Success of the Doctor"; "Health Crusades"; "Group Medicine," etc. The third section deals with the rewards of medical work. Dr. Cabot believes that medicine is a profession that can use the whole of a man as no other profession can. As in all his other books, the author lays special stress on the necessity of study and training in the humanities. He suggests the need of the doctor who is to treat a cattleman, a stockbroker, the candy-eating girl, the old lady, the laundress or an actress, etc. Knowing all that he can about the things which fill their days and their thoughts, the routine detail of their lives, what they instinctively like or dislike or fear or admire, suggests also some attention to "the art of encouragement"--the reasons for discouragement, etc.By all means, add the book to the next list for the training school library. Doctors, superintendents, and nurses will profit by pondering over its contents.
