Healthcare Rehabilitation is a vast field - 0 views

  •  
    Healthcare Rehabilitation is a vast field: The field of healthcare rehabilitation is very vast and expansive. In traditional societies, most commonly relatable to the Orient and Africa, there is the ages-old cultural belief that it is the duty of children to take care of their parents when they age. On the contrary, for us in the west, healthcare rehabilitation has emerged as a specialized branch of healthcare because of the emphasis our society places on independence of the individual. Healthcare rehabilitation is a product of social mores: Younger generations of people are not expected to spend entire years, as may be the case in some families, to look after people of their previous generations who may be in need of medical care. It is on this outlook towards life of our society that healthcare rehabilitation has come into being. However, it is also possible that younger people could also be in need of healthcare rehabilitation. Even such people are put in the care of healthcare providers which offer these services. The divisions of healthcare rehabilitation: Branching out as a fully developed field of healthcare, healthcare rehabilitation has many specializations. These are broadly the areas in which healthcare rehabilitation is offered: General rehabilitation: General rehabilitation of some or another kind is a primary aspect of healthcare rehabilitation. Those in need of this kind of care typically include patients who have lost their ability to carry out day-to-day tasks such as talking, walking, brushing, eating, etc. many a time, depending on the nature of the ailment, rehabilitation could include therapies, exercises and other activities aimed at bringing in some element of mobility in the patient. This kind of healthcare rehabilitation could also include taking care to revive the patient's memory, when patients with diseases like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's are admitted for healthcare rehabilitation.

Ethics and Laws for Mental Health Professionals- 2 day In person Seminar - 0 views

  •  
    Overview: Mental health care practitioners work in today's diverse, fast-changing, multidisciplinary health care environment. Nowhere but in mental health is there such diversity of clinicians who provide the same or similar services of counseling and therapy. A potential client has a wide choice of mental health providers from whom to choose. Yet each individual mental health profession has a unique education, training, and experience requirement for practice. While similarities exist, requirements differ from state to state and even from profession to profession with a single state. What are these requirements and how do they apply? The state's authority and power over mental health practitioners often presents challenges to these mental health professionals that are not easy to navigate. Differing sources of legal and ethical authority govern each respective health care practitioner in ways that are similar but not the same. Ethics and law are similar, but not the same. All mental health practitioners must adhere to standards of state law which govern their professional practices, including the very core of the doctor-patient relationship. Codes of ethics and state law may both apply to govern the conduct of this clinician. Even some state laws are referred to as ethical codes. Complaints as to alleged misconduct or ethical failings are received and investigated by a state agency and leave the mental health practitioner with an uncertain process to handle and to defend the state action against them. With this background, this seminar empowers the full understanding and application of ethics and laws for mental health practitioners. Learn to identify and understand an ethical framework for a sound mental health practice. An ethical framework is essential to having the right perspective to examine mental health dilemmas. Compare and contrast regulatory laws and codes of ethics to understand their differing applicability. Know the difference between laws and ethics,

Health IT - Documenting in the EHR and Focusing on the Patient - 0 views

  •  
    Mott Blair, a Wallace, N.C.- based family physician, doesn't get occupied by the EHR in the patient exam room as he keeps it in a separate place, ideally outside the exam room. He utilizes an out-dated clipboard and paper to take notes during patient visits. "I do all my work face-to-face with patients. I keep up that connection, and always listen to what they have to say with patience," he says.

Increasing incidence of sexually transmitted disease to augment the growth of the Peyro... - 0 views

  •  
    Peyronie's disease (Pdy) is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the infectious agent of the same name - the bacteria known as folliculitis. Peyronie's disease is more common in men than in women, with approximately 3% of men being affected by it. This disease is most commonly associated with poor oral hygiene, although sexual intercourse can also cause it. The precise causes of this condition are not known, but heredity, diabetes, and injury to the urethra may all be contributing factors. The primary treatment of Peyronies is the surgical removal of the papillae, which are found on the tip of the penis. Peyronie's disease (Pdy) is clinically classified as an intervertebral disk disease and is often difficult to diagnose. The growing prevalence of Peyronie's disease around the globe is propelling the growth of the Peyronie's disease treatment market. According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, it primarily affects men between 45 and 60 years of age, although an age range of 18 to 80 years. This disease occurs more often in men between 40 to 70 years older. Improved healthcare facilities across developing regions coupled with the availability of the multiple treatment options due to advancement in technology are again propelling the market growth. Moreover, the increasing geriatric population around the globe is further projected to foster the growth of Peyronie's disease treatment market.
