IIM, IIT study helps doctors manage time efficiently by Dr.Mahboob Khan PhdHealthcare consultant
For example, the timetable suggests that if the patient load is up to 400 per day and the consultation time is between 15 and 20 minutes, then two full OPD days per week would be the best. Two full days OPD cycle is also preferable if the patient load increases to 500 per day. The problem arises only if the patient load is increased to 500 per day and the consultation time is also increased, then the four half-day OPD schedule would be best.
If the hospital follows four half days of OPD schedule, then, clearly the patients are able to get over with their OPD treatment in much less time than before, as in one week now, they can receive consultation four times rather than two times.
Medical education is undergoing transformation to better prepare physicians for new models of care. In India, major curricular changes taking effect in 2019 aim to make medical education more productive and ensure students learn skills needed to effectively manage cases and emergencies. Currently, many medical colleges rely on outdated teaching methods and teachers uninterested in reform. Students often skip lectures or do not pay attention due to a mismatch between what is taught and tested. Digital technologies are changing learning, with many students using online videos and subscription services. Medical schools are replacing lectures with small group work and self-directed learning at home to better apply knowledge. Curricular reforms aim to train students to identify system failures and function as active members of interprofessional healthcare teams.
This collaboration between Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Cardozo Law builds upon the long history and rich clinical experience of the Montefiore-Einstein bioethics consultation service.

The document discusses strategies to improve Haiti's health infrastructure. It analyzes two interventions: establishing community health centers in 125 communal sections to improve rural healthcare access, and expanding mobile and fixed school clinics. For community health centers, the annual costs are estimated at $774 million with benefits of $3 billion from disabilities and lives avoided. Two school clinic strategies - low and high-intensity mobile clinics and fixed clinics - are compared. High-intensity mobile clinics and fixed clinics provide similar benefits of $2 billion, while low-intensity mobile clinics provide $404 million in benefits. The benefits outweigh the costs for both interventions.

This document discusses the conversion of traditional block rotation medical education to a longitudinal integrated clerkship model at an Australian academic medical center. A series of pilot programs were conducted from 2013-2015 with modifications based on feedback. The proposed 2016 model would attach each student to a medical and surgical consultant for one semester, include continued academic sessions, and assess students through programmatic assessment rather than a single exam. The goal is to implement this longitudinal integrated clerkship model for the entire class of 72-80 students starting in 2016.
This document summarizes research conducted to understand current knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors toward health and safety management in laboratories at third-level colleges. Questionnaires were distributed to students and staff to assess safety knowledge, training, and attitudes. Laboratory audits were also conducted. The results showed that while health and safety practices are in place, they may not be utilized fully in management. There appears to be a gap between communicated safety information and how students and staff interpret and apply it, which could influence attitudes and practices regarding laboratory safety. The goal is to improve safety procedures and promote positive safety cultures for future generations.

Nurse practitioners are an important part of the healthcare system in the United States. They were first developed in the 1960s in response to a need for healthcare in rural areas. While initially controversial, nurse practitioner programs have become formalized and their scope of practice has expanded, though it still varies by state. Nurse practitioners can work in a variety of healthcare settings and specialize in different areas like pediatrics or geriatrics.

Background: Optimum learning environments (LEs) are linked with positive training outcomes for residents. However, there is few data concerning how the residents perceive the learning environments in teaching hospitals. This study aims to analyze the residents’ perceptions of their learning environments.
Methods: This cross-sectional, hospital-based study was carried out between November 2020 and January 2021, using a Postgraduate Hospital Educational Environment Measurement (PHEEM) questionnaire. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.
Results: The total number was 45 participants, 40 of them successfully responded. The total Cronbach`s alpha score was 0.93, which reflects good reliability. The full-scale score was 128 out of 160, which indicates a good learning environment. The autonomy score was 44, the teachers' score was 50, and social support was 34. Finally, the overall mean score for females was 43.3 compared to 39.4 for males, with a P-value of 0.55. Furthermore, no significant difference in residents’ perceptions of their learning environment according to their training was observed in this study.
Conclusion: Significant challenges in the LE were identified; more attention and effort should be given, especially to the poorly rated point in this study: the existence of an informative program, clear clinical protocols, and proper setting expectations. The lowest score was for catering, housing. A high social support score indicates a healthy workplace environment and job satisfaction.
