Book SynopsisThe NHS is in crisis - it's in record demand, and care services are at breaking point - but what if the solution to rescuing the NHS is in the hands of the patients themselves?In this refreshingly positive and remarkable book, David Gilbert shares the powerful real-life stories of 'patient leaders' - ordinary people affected by life-changing illnesses, disabilities, or conditions, who have all gone back into the fray to help change the healthcare system in necessary and inspiring ways. Charting their diverse journeys - from managing to live with their condition, and their motivation to change the status quo, right through to their successes in improving approaches to health and social care - these moving and courageous stories aim to motivate others to take back control and showcase the pivotal importance of patients as genuine decision-making leaders.Filled with hard-won wisdom and everyday heroism, The Patient Revolution challenges current discourse and sets out an empowering vision of how patient leaders can change the future of healthcare.Trade ReviewHealthcare has made huge progress in the last 70 years, but how much further could we have travelled if we'd let patients lead the charge? To design any treatment or service without hearing the voices of those who use it, and knowing what matters most to them, is to set ourselves up for failure. And yet patient involvement is a relatively recent idea. When I trained as a doctor in the mid-eighties, we commonly wouldn't tell some patients what their diagnosis was, for fear of upsetting them. Others were labelled 'not for resuscitation' without any discussion or agreement from them. And yet as this book amply illustrates, there are huge gains to be made from telling patients the whole truth and letting them take a lead in their care, and to take as much control and responsibility as they feel willing and able to do. The patient leaders here tell inspiring and sometimes frustrating stories, but they are all united by a desire to learn from their experience and to improve the experience of those who follow them. We desperately need their help if healthcare is to cope with the demands placed on it. This wonderful collection of insight and experience is a great place to start. -- Dr Phil Hammond, NHS doctor, journalist and author of ‘Staying Alive – How to Improve Your Health and Your Healthcare’At the beginning of my medical career, collaborations with service users barely existed. When they started to emerge, I have to admit I was sceptical. But as I grew older, and hopefully wiser, I started to wake up. Now I think they are indispensable. If anyone still needs convincing, read this book. I promise you won't regret it. -- Professor Sir Simon Wessely, President, Royal Society of MedicineDavid has shaped the purpose of Patient Leadership as a Patient Director in an NHS Service. Bringing his full and authentic self to the workplace David has truly located the Patient as an equal in the planning and delivery of NHS care. There is much for us all to learn from his experience. -- Samantha Allen, Chief Executive, Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust'Extraordinary stories, extraordinarily well told' was my first reaction but that is not the point of this book. The point is that, sadly, the stories may be all too common. The people who have talked to David Gilbert about their experiences of healthcare have done us all a service, as has Gilbert in his sensitive presentation of their voices. We should all listen. -- Harry Cayton, former Chief Executive, Professional Standards AuthorityA profoundly important book about a social movement of patients who are also activists and entrepreneurs and who can make a vital contribution to the NHS. Having read the book, I am left wondering: 'Why doesn't the system wholeheartedly embrace patient leadership?'Perhaps it's all about power. A chief executive recently tweeted- without irony- that a red chair would sit empty during all executive meetings to remind board members of the importance of patient involvement. Please read this book, please reflect on it and please don't leave the red chair empty. -- Professor Alf Collins, Clinical Director for Personalised Care, NHS England and NHS ImprovementThis book is dangerously good. -- Richard Pemberton, Director of British Psychological SocietyI imagine that many readers have had the experience of making their own diagnosis based on information on the Internet, which is part of patient empowerment so that people can arrive better informed at their doctor's appointment. This book goes further by sharing the stories of 13 'patient leaders' who have drawn on their own experience to impact the National Health Service with its procedures, protocols and the general assumption that professionals know best and that change must come from the top down. In many cases, the patients have really been through the hoops and have shown immense resilience to come out the other side. What emerges is a model of partnership, advocacy and engagement, humanising institutions operating impersonally by the book. Sometimes this involves a process of infiltration but more often sheer persistence in the face of resistance and inertia... This approach certainly has a role to play in healing the healthcare system and inspiring readers with its stories. * Paradigm Explorer *The Patient Revolution is a powerful examination of patient engagement. Not only in its first-hand depiction of a broken healthcare system. But in its demonstration of the failure of traditional public and patient engagement. Focussed on the UK - more specifically, the NHS - it documents the hazardous fragmentation across the healthcare system and the acute disconnect with patients in a siloed approach to healthcare. At times, with dire consequences. On the one hand, in the documented experiences of inconceivable "bad care", to reuse Gilbert's words, that speak volumes of how traditional healthcare has failed the very people it is meant to serve. On the other hand, in the empty rhetoric of "patient-centric" approaches and "tick box" methods that have occupied decades of so-called patient engagement. As Gilbert writes, traditionally conceived patient and public engagement "buffers power by distancing patients from decision-making." Moreover, where engagement fails, ironically, it's attributed to "the lack of value that patients bring."But it is far from a negative lambasting. As the subtitle title suggests - "how we can heal the healthcare system" - it is an inspiring, activating collection, animated by the wisdom of experience of its 13 Patient Leaders, who have not only suffered at the hands of "bad care", but, remarkably, are dedicated to changing the system - often without recompense, at times disempowered, co-opted or stripped of any professional identity...It would be difficult to read this book and not be driven to activism. It signals a breakthrough in healthcare that moves beyond traditional engagement and uncovers the pioneering and transformative work of patient leaders in the UK. For engagement practitioners, this book helps understand questions we need to ask of any healthcare system - and not only limited to UK and the NHS - but globally. It also underscores how traditional engagement methods have failed, bottom line, by not valuing their most vital resource: patients. * Sally Hussey, Bang The Table *Compelling...there is much for us to think about when working with clients. * Therapy Today *Table of ContentsPreface: The Tale of the Jewel MerchantsIntroduction1.

Book SynopsisOrganising care around patients is not for the fainthearted. Naomi Chambers and Jeremy Taylors have curated twenty-five accounts from people who agreed to tell the story of what happened when they or their loved ones came into contact with the NHS. The authors defy you not to laugh or cry, or hold your breath in disbelief, at some point when reading this book.In these true and compelling accounts, we learn the experiences – good and bad – of people grappling with birth and death, caring for loved ones, living with mental illness, coping with long-term conditions, and struggling in older age. This book is a call to action aimed at healthcare professionals, managers and politicians: a manifesto for more patient-centred care.These stories show the NHS at its very best – and also when it falls significantly short. Patients or carers currently battling with the system will derive some hope and encouragement, and clues about what to expect, what to ask for, and from whom.Trade Review'This timely and important book does exactly what it says in its title – it places patients at the centre, enables their stories to be told and heard, and explores what these insights mean for the organisation of health and care services. That this book is so necessary and hard-hitting underlines how much more remains to be done to bring about person-centred care.'Judith Smith, Director of Health Services Management Centre, University of Birmingham'I have a real fear that despite the best intentions of most health professionals, pressures in the NHS are resulting in care which is increasingly more transactional and less personalised. This fear keeps me awake at night because a health system which doesn’t have patients at its heart won’t work. This book challenges and inspires the reader to get us to a better place.'Martin Marshall, Chair Royal College of General Practitioners and GP in Newham, East London'There is no health system on the planet that can maintain its sustainability without patients as partners and communities as carers. This book is a timely reminder of this truth.'Mark Britnell, Vice-Chair and Global Health Expert, KPMG UK'This book is a timely reminder of the gap between what is convenient for an organization, on one hand, and patient and family values, rights, and autonomy on the other. The text touches on further topics, such as funding, staff shortages, and future trends. The book is a call to action for health care providers to organize their attitudes, practices, and behaviors around patient-centered care.'ChoiceReprinted with permission from Choice Reviews.

Book SynopsisThis new edition updates the previous one and adds additional content related to postoperative management, pain management, LGBTQ care, and uroradiology. This book is designed to meet the needs of nurse practitioners, advanced practice nurses globally and physician assistants working in urology. Content assumes some background knowledge regarding the normal anatomy and physiology of the genitourinary system and the pathophysiology underlying specific urologic health-related problems. This ensures that the provider can pursue exemplary management of patients with acute and chronic urologic conditions in a wide variety of settings, including independent practices, and academic urologic practices. This manual fills the gaps that traditional curricula may have left, permitting the reader to proceed with confident management of adult patients with urologic care needs, promoting the role of a skilled clinician in urology, especially for chronic, non-operative urologic conditions while recognizing those conditions which may benefit from surgical management.As the burden of urologic disease increases with an aging U.S. population, it is increasingly clear that nurse practitioners and physician assistants will be called on to move into roles caring for patients with urologic disease. Use of NPs and PAs to their highest education will become an increasingly important strategy for maintaining access and reducing costs, in the context of urologist workforce that is shrinking. However, urology topics receive sporadic attention in NP and PA curricula, leaving practicing NPs and PAs with gaps in their knowledge concerning trends and recommendations for management of urologic health conditions. As this demand for provider visits for urologic concerns increases, the demand for provider services to care for patients with urologic health concerns will also increase, and presents the opportunity for both NPs and PAs to move into specialty practice environments within urology.Table of Contents Preface Introduction Michelle Lajiness and Susanne Quallich 1.

Book SynopsisEncouraging a broad, compassionate, humanistic approach to spirituality, this book shows how patients' spiritual needs can be communicated well within interdisciplinary teams, leading to better patient wellbeing.This book describes the art of charting patients' spiritual perspectives in an open way that will help physicians and nurses to better direct medical care. It includes practical information on how to distil spiritual needs into pragmatic language, helping to demystify spiritual experience. Drawing on his extensive practical experience, the author also suggests key points to emphasise that will enrich chart notes for medical records, including brief, relative narratives, trusting one's own impressions, reflecting holistically on the patient's life, patient attitudes towards treatment and recovery, and describing families' opinions on the health care situation of their loved one. The book shows healthcare professionals of all disciplines how to engage in a shared responsibility for the spiritual care of their patients.Trade ReviewHumanistic care is the result of a collaborative effort across all the disciplines including clinical chaplains. Gordon Hilsman in his book successfully makes a case and provides a practical framework for chaplains to document the state of the patient's human spirit in the face of uncertainty and adversity in the medical chart. This act of "humanizing" the medical chart creates the climate for spiritual care to complement medical care and therefore promote healing. This book is a must read for every member of the interdisciplinary medical team. -- Juan C. Iregui, MD Palliative Medicine & EthicsMagnificent work - a must-read for health care professionals. Hilsman's artful analysis of spirituality fills a gap in the caring professions' knowledge base. Providing insight into healing, Hilsman's theory draws the reader into recognizing what makes up the human spirit from surprising angles. -- Brenda Miller, MSN, RN, BC-NE, Nursing Director, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Mass.Kudos for Spiritual Care in Common Terms, an inspiring and self-revealing look at the science and art of spiritual care. Hilsman reveals the best-kept secrets of professional chaplaincy and openly welcomes all who care for the body, mind and spirit of the human person. A must read! -- Tim Serban, Chief Mission Integration Officer at Providence Health & Services, Oregon, National Volunteer Lead at American Red Cross Disaster Spiritual Care, Author, and Board Certified ChaplainWeaving together a lifetime of experience with a growing body of research, Gordon Hilsman has crafted a guide that proves beneficial to both the novice clinical pastoral education student as well as the seasoned clinical spiritual care giver. This book, both expansive in breadth and thoughtful in depth, is warmly accessible yet never trite, making it also a significant resource for interdisciplinary teams interested in the practice of spiritual care. -- Trace Haythorn, Ph.D., M.Div., Executive Director, The Association for Clinical Pastoral Education Inc.I have had the privilege over recent years in diverse professional learning settings to experience Gordon examining this topic of capturing in common language the soul of another so that this vital knowledge can be understood by the multidisciplinary care team to inform goals and plans of care. Combining theory, cases, numerous examples of goals of care, and spiritual care wisdom honed from years of clinical education and practice, Gordon masterfully provides (using his criteria for quality chart notes) a very understandable, significantly substantive, and exceptionally readable volume that will serve very well the chaplains and health care professionals to whom he has devoted his life for the benefit of the care recipient's healing and wholeness. -- David A. Lichter, D.Min., Executive Director, NACCThis is a marvelous and important book. In lucid prose, Gordon Hilsman explains the importance of succinct, earthy spiritual assessment notes for the medical record. He shows us the how and the why, and reminds us how important it is to create an image in the chart of the entirety of a person. The patients we all serve, and our poor beleaguered healthcare system, will be the better for listening to his call, recounted with warmth, wisdom, empathy, and good humor. -- David K. Urion, M.D., FAAN, Director of Education and Residency Training Programs in Child Neurology and Neurodevelopmental Disabilities, Co-Chair, Ethics Advisory Committee, Boston Children's HospitalSpirituality of patients is an essential domain of whole-person care. Patients often suffer in silence; that suffering or spiritual distress must be recognized and treated. Professional chaplains are essential members of the healthcare team. It is critical that they communicate verbally and in the chart note the spiritual needs of the patient, how they are addressing that need and what outcomes the team should look for to help the patient heal. Spiritual Care in Common Terms offers the language and format for chaplains to communicate this clinical aspect of spiritual care that can be understood in the reductionist clinical framework but keeps the patient's inner narrative in the forefront of their care for all members to provide compassionate care for our patients. This is a must read for not only chaplains but for other members of the interdisciplinary team. -- Christina Puchalski, MD, FACP, FAAHPMTable of ContentsForeword by James H.

Trade Review‘With this book, Naomi Chambers has brought together renowned scientists whose research contributes to the evidence that great leadership is the key to better patient experiences at a lower cost. I recommend this book to anyone seeking knowledge about how collective, compassionate, ethical, connective and transformational leadership can be applied in everyday practice, or to anyone who has this as a research interest. It is profound work that is most welcome in an era where the scarcity of healthcare professionals is already manifesting itself daily.’ -- Kees Ahaus, Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands‘This comprehensive volume will be an important reference for scholars and researchers but also has much that will be of value to practising leaders in health care. The presentation of the theoretical components is wide-ranging, clear, and accessible and is combined with case studies and vignettes that bring it to life.’ -- Nigel Edwards, Nuffield Trust, UK‘This excellent major edited collection offers evidence-based insights into the complexity of healthcare leadership in turbulent times. International experts share research-based analysis of the context, theory and practice of leading health and care services and systems, together with a comprehensive set of international case studies of how best to develop healthcare leaders and leadership.’ -- Judith Smith, University of Birmingham, UKTable of ContentsContents: 1 Research Handbook on Leadership in Healthcare: Introduction Naomi Chambers PART I - THE HEALTHCARE LEADERSHIP LANDSCAPE 2 A brief history of healthcare leadership Stephanie Snow and Lawrence Benson 3 Healthcare leadership: cultures, climates and compassion Michael West and Suzie Bailey 4 The role of leaders in implementing health reforms Jean-Louis Denis and Susan Usher 5 Leadership insights in the creation of a global sustainable workforce Charlotte Refsum and Mark Britnell 6 Healthcare leadership in resource constrained environments Walter Mkumbuzi, Walter Mangezi and Crispen Sachikonye 7 Healthcare leadership with Political astuteness Justin Waring, Simon Bishop, Jenelle Clarke, Mark Exworthy and Jean Hartley 8 The contribution of leadership for effective integration of care Robin Miller, Axel Kaehne and Jon Glasby PART II – THEORIES & FRAMEWORKS FOR UNDERSTANDING LEADERSHIP IN THE HEALTHCARE CONTEXT 9 Psychodynamic leadership in healthcare settings Christos Plakiotis 10 Comrades in adversity: The role of action learning in healthcare leadership development Helen Baxter and Simon Moralee 11 The role of trait emotional intelligence in healthcare leadership Stephanie Russ, Matheus França Perazzo and Konstantinos V.

Book SynopsisChristiane Knecht zeigt Perspektiven für Wissenschaft und Praxis auf, wie Geschwister im Kontext der chronischen Krankheit eines Geschwisterkindes unterstützt werden können. Die Autorin untersucht in dieser Grounded Theory Studie, wie sich das Beziehungsgefüge aus der Perspektive gesunder Geschwister darstellt, wenn sie mit einem von chronischer Krankheit betroffenen Geschwisterkind aufwachsen. Sie zeigt, dass es Anpassungs- und Familienarbeit von den gesunden Geschwistern erfordert, um sich selbstverständlich zwischen ihrer eigenen sozialen sowie der durch die Krankheit irritierten familialen Welt bewegen zu können.Die Autorin Christiane Knecht ist Pflegewissenschaftlerin und vertritt derzeit die Professur Akutpflege an der Universität Witten/Herdecke. Des Weiteren ist sie dort als Postdoktorandin im kooperativen Forschungskolleg Familiengesundheit im Lebensverlauf der Universität Witten/Herdecke und der Hochschule Osnabrück beschäftigt.

Book SynopsisDieses essential befasst sich mit der Reflexion des eigenen Zeit- und Pflegeverständnisses. Adelheid von Spee geht in dem Band dem Zeitdruck durch Sprache, z.B. durch das Benutzen von Beschleunigungswörtern wie: „mal eben, schnell noch, kurz mal….“, nach und sensibilisiert für die Sprache als ein Werkzeug der Entschleunigung. Im Zentrum des Buches wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie Pflege in angemessener Geschwindigkeit gestaltet werden kann, so dass alle am Pflegeprozess beteiligten Personen mitgehen können und eine professionelle pflegerische Wahrnehmung und Beobachtung möglich ist. Das Buch leitet dazu an, die eigenen Slow Care Momente wahrzunehmen und zu sammeln und richtet den Blick auf das Gelingende.Table of ContentsZeit und Geschwindigkeit.- Pflegen auf Augenhöhe.- Sprache und Zeitdruck.

Book SynopsisDie Autorin zeigt in einer systematischen Literaturrecherche, dass keine wissenschaftliche Studie existiert, die unter Einbezug der Pflegepraxis folgende Fragen untersucht: Welche Handlungen führen Pflege(fach)kräfte in der neurologischen (Früh-)Rehabilitation durch? Wie führen sie diese Handlungen durch? Was ist das Therapeutische an diesen Pflegehandlungen? Beobachtungen der Pflegepraxis zeigen starke Differenzen in Bezug auf die Durchführung von speziellen Pflegehandlungen auf. Im Rahmen des G-DRG-Systems wurden innerhalb der Leistungsabrechnung Kataloge konzipiert, die Pflegehandlungen auflisten, aber nicht definieren, was therapeutische Pflege ist.Table of ContentsNeurologische (Früh-)Rehabilitation in Deutschland.- Pflegetherapeutische Handlungen in der neurologischen (Früh-)Rehabilitation.- Qualitative Studie basierend auf der Grounded Theory.- Diskussion des Begriffs therapeutische Pflege anhand bestehender Pflegetheorien.

Book SynopsisFragen nach dem Forschungsdesign sind immer auch Fragen nach der Gegenstandsangemessenheit. Die Qualität ihrer Umsetzung zeigt sich darin, wie gut es gelingt, Design, Forschungsfrage und Forschungsfeld anzupassen. Die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses Buches beantworten die sich ihnen stellende Frage der Gegenstandsangemessenheit teils mit der Entwicklung neuer Methoden für neue Herausforderungen in Pflege und Pflegewissenschaft, teils mit der Anwendung ‚klassischer‘ Forschungsdesigns, wie sie Hermeneutische Verfahren, Metaphernanalyse, Praxeologie oder Ethnographie vorschlagen. Wie es gelingen kann, methodologische und forschungspraktische Anforderungen zu erfüllen, zeigen diese fünf sehr unterschiedlichen Antworten. Deutlich wird die Notwendigkeit, sich einzulassen auf den Gegenstand und qualitative Forschung als Prozess zu begreifen. Ergänzt werden diese forschungspraktischen Beispiele durch einen Aufriss der theoretischen und methodologischen Implikationen, sowie der Frage danach, wie Methoden gelehrt werden können.Table of ContentsIm Fokus.- Von der Paraphrase zur Interpretation.- Ausgewählte methodologische und methodische Implikationen in der qualitativen Forschung.- Die Rolle der Forschenden im Erkenntnisprozess.- Forschen in interdisziplinären Projekten im Spannungsfeld „Pflege und Technik“.- Systematische Metaphernanalyse.- Die Metaphernanalyse im Didaktischen Feld.
