Physician-Patient and Hospital-Patient elationships
The importance of the physician-patient and hospital-patient relationships

There exists a quite recommendable potential in the alliance between a patient and a physician. A patient, who puts trust in the care of a physician, establishes moral responsibilities that are weighty and definite. When the patient and the physician work together, the possibility of pursuing intervention comes into place, and the health and quality life of the patient is bound to improve. Trust is very essential and critical in the bond between the patient and the physician in the process of diagnosis and therapy.

How contract principle and breach of warranty apply to the health care setting

In the healthcare setting, legal responsibilities to break discretion may result in difficult choices. The physician has the ethical responsibility of following the law but must know how to scale this with the responsibility to the patient. It is very important to between the…...

doctor and patient relationship behavior in a new light. The research documented in this article attempted to describe the effect of bedside case presentations vs. conference room style presentations. The impact of the medial care was interpreted through the patients perceptions of their medical care.
The research contained in this article was premised upon the idea that a significant difference may be noticed through different doctor presentations. The dichotomy presented here was bedside presentations may be more effective than the more rigid and academic style of the conference room presentation. They wrote "Despite the potential advantages of bedside presentations for students and physicians, there has been a trend to move clinical teaching away from the bedside and into the conference room. Concern about patients' discomfort with bedside presentations appears to be one reason for this change. Studies of such presentations have focused on patients' impressions and measurements of patients' anxiety.…...

Key Finding

The researchers of this article found that there is much ignorance about the health benefits of exclusive breast feeding in Kenya. Many of the perceived ill health symptoms appeared to be associated with a lack of exclusive breast feeding practices. The authors suggested that more needed to be done in terms of educating young mothers and caregivers in this environment to practice exclusive breast feeding methods on their infants. Too much reliance is given to "their own backyard garden, and popular and folk medicines."

Ido Jean Orlando and analyzes how her contribution has impacted the nursing profession. It has 3 sources.
The field of nursing requires the utmost care on the part of nurses if they are to understand their patients. Nurses are an integral part of the medical care provision because they provide patients both physical and emotional care. Even doctors cannot succeed in reaching the level of emotional contact that nurses can achieve with their patients. According to Ida Jean Orlando, this kind of close relationship is dependent on the communication that nurses establish with the patients. This communication, whether verbal or non-verbal, plays a vital role in dealing out the most appropriate treatment as quickly as possible. Ida Jean Orlando's The Dynamic Nurse-Patient Relationship: Function, Process, and Principles, is a book that has had an immense impact on the field of nursing, popularizing Orlando's theory.

To wit, power is a huge influence in any social interaction, and in a study reported by the University of California Press (est, 2008, p. 87), men often interrupt women during conversations because men are generally viewed as the power in any male-female interaction. "Physicians interrupt patients disproportionately" in doctor-patient interactions, est writes, "except when the doctor is a 'lady'; then, "patients interrupt as much or more than physicians, and their interruptions seem to subvert physicians' authority" (est, p. 87). In other words, the stratification of male doctors having the power to interrupt is reversed when a woman is the doctor.

Patient-Centered Medical Home
Medical Home

How the Patient-Centered Medical-Home reducing cost and improving quality and safety for patients.

The patient centered medical home is a platform that fills a need in the current healthcare system. The U.S. healthcare system has been plagued for quite some time with a trend of substantially rising healthcare costs as well as another trend of slipping quality standards. These two trends are argued to be a phenomenon that has emerged at least partly from poor planning and ineffective use of resources. One solution to some of these issues can be found in the patient-centered medical home (PCMH) model of primary care. This model has been developed with the coordination of long-term physician-patient relationships in mind. Developing these relationships further can not only reduce costs in unnecessary procedures that are the result of the missed opportunity for preventive care, but also have been shown to improve patient satisfaction. This…...

These studies demonstrate that there are several factors associated with patient noncompliance, regardless of the disease being treated. Medication side effects represent only one of these issues. Nurse practitioners could help to resolve many of these issues by being proactive and asking questions about side effects in patients at risk for becoming noncompliant. They may also be able to predict noncompliance in patients that are prescribed medications with known side effects. By informing the patient of the side effects and giving them practical ways to cope with them, the nurse practitioner can play an active role in helping to eliminate patient noncompliance.

Education was found to play an important role in patient noncompliance. The overall educational level of the patient was found to be important. The nurse practitioner can take positive action by being aware of the patient's overall educational background. Extra care must be taken with those of low educational…...

Merrill, in the UK. Following his experience with heart surgery using innovating surgical techniques, the physician noted the problems he experienced in understanding all of his alternatives compared to a simpler earlier procedure, and finally trusted to the advice of his cardiologist to surgically intervene. In response to the experience, Dr. Merrill emphasized that, "As a physician talking to colleagues, I had the best information possible under the circumstances. But it wasn't the same as my hernia repair. The experience brought home to me the realization that the progress of medicine has made informed consent impossible -- even for me" (Merrill 1999: 190).

Patient Centered Medical Homes (PCMH) are often confused as being actual "homes" for patients to be admitted in and given medical treatment and care. PCMH is actually a health care model based on which health care is provided to patients, under the supervision of physicians. The PCMH model of health care provides patients with continuous, comprehensive medical care, in order to increase the chances of achieving the goal of benefitting the patient with as much attention and medical care in order to maximize his/her health outcomes.
Over the years the PCMH model of health care has become widely adopted and preferred. This is because of the philosophy and approach that the model adopts in organizing and delivering the health care initiatives. The PCMH model is based upon delivering medical care and attention to patients with team-based health and medical experts that are focused strongly on the quality and the safety of…...

The study objectives were to identify the percentage of women who had been tested for HIV, explore the perceptions of women patients about HIV testing and ascertain their knowledge about their own HIV risk status, to determine the primary reasons patients refuse to be tested for HIV, and to learn what patients recall about how their obstetrician-gynecologists' introduced the topic of HIV testing.

The authors hypothesized that pregnant women, women seeking preconception care, and women with risk factors for HIV infection would recall their obstetrician-gynecologists recommending HIV testing" (Coleman, et al., 2009)

elationship of Information Technology to Organizational Performance
Enterprises have continually invested in information technologies (IT) to gain competitive advantages by improving their business processes, integrating and aggregating diverse databases, and then transforming the data into a competitive advantage. The paradox of how to invest in IT for an optimal return however has been elusive (Brynjolfsson, Hitt, 1998). Traditional measures of eturn on investment (OI), metrics and key performance Indicators (KPIs) have failed to scale from the operational sides of a business to the data- and knowledge-based processes and functions (Ko, Osei-bryson, 2008). Analysis of information technology investments and their contributions to a firm's financial performance illustrate that the selective use of IT to supplement strategies, not its en masse adoption, is a critical success factor (Osei-Bryson, Ko, 2004). Studies have shown that in a market duopoly characterized by slow to moderate growth, the automating of processes and strategies has the potential…...

elationships and expectations form one of the three main domains of the PEN-3 model. These three factors, perceptions, enablers, and nurturers, refer to the cultural component of health-seeking behaviors. The relationships and expectations domain can inform healthcare workers about how to encourage health-seeking behaviors in patients, and is a culturally sensitive approach. The PEN-3 concept shows how culture is a major determinant of both individual and public health.
Perceptions refer to the individual's perceptions about health, disease, medication, doctors, and healthcare systems. The perceptions are related directly to the cultural values, beliefs, and norms that are already embedded in the community. Individual and collective group health behaviors may be strongly determined by perceptions. For example, is there a perception that heart disease is not a serious problem in the African-American community? Or, is there a perception that healthcare is too expensive, or that doctors are too paternalistic? Perceptions might also impact…...

A Patient's Rights

There are a number of lists to go by when it comes to the patient's "Bill of Rights," including a patient's rights under the Affordable Care Act. In the American Cancer Society "Patient's Bill of Rights" it begins with the right every patient has to "…accurate and easily-understood information about your health plan, health care professionals, and health care facilities' (www.cancer.org). Of course a patient also has the right to choose health care providers and when it comes to emergency services, a patient has a right to be "…screened and stabilized using emergency services" when injured or seriously ill; so that when one's health is in jeopardy, access to emergency services can be a vital and stabilizing experience (www.cancer.org).

However, compliance with these recommendations can vary among first-time mothers, influenced by a variety of factors.

One key factor that influences first-time mothers compliance with neonatal vaccination is their knowledge and beliefs about vaccines. Studies have shown that mothers who have a positive attitude towards vaccinations and understand the importance of immunization are more....
