Doctor Patient Relationship Yusuf MisauYusuf Misau
The document discusses the doctor-patient relationship and factors that influence it. It describes the relationship as an emotional association between doctor and patient that depends on both clinical knowledge and the social relationship. Several models of the doctor-patient relationship are presented, including Parsons' model of the sick role and doctor's role, and Szasz and Hollender's models of activity-passivity, guidance-cooperation, and mutual participation. Transactional analysis is also discussed as a way to understand interactions using ego states of parent, adult and child. Factors like differences in perspectives, types of relationships, and communication skills are said to influence the doctor-patient relationship.
The document discusses the doctor-patient relationship (DPR) and how to build a good DPR. It defines the DPR as an emotional association between a doctor and patient where the doctor helps alleviate the patient's suffering. A good DPR involves effective communication, understanding the patient as an individual rather than just their disease, showing empathy, answering questions honestly, and involving the patient in decision making. Principles of medical ethics like beneficence and autonomy are important to DPR, as are models like the paternalistic, informative, and deliberative models described by Parsons. A good DPR improves treatment compliance, avoids unnecessary intervention, and prevents issues.

Doctor-patient communication has evolved from a paternalistic model to one emphasizing mutual participation. Effective communication is important for accurate diagnosis, treatment adherence and patient satisfaction. It requires listening skills, managing expectations, and tailoring information to individual patients. While doctors value diagnostic skills most, patients prioritize listening. Shared decision-making is preferred but preferences vary between patients. Qualitative research is needed to fully understand patient satisfaction.
This document discusses several important aspects of the doctor-patient relationship, including:
1) Doctors have a duty to act in their patients' best interests according to ethical principles. An effective relationship requires respect, understanding, and trust between doctors and patients.
2) Factors like mutual understanding, clear guidelines for care options, comfort during illness, and open discussion even during uncertainty are important.
3) The relationship must maintain patient confidentiality, honesty, and informed mutual decision-making while avoiding discrimination, abuse, or neglect. Terminating a relationship requires reasonable cause and respecting professional boundaries is important.
The document discusses the qualities and responsibilities of being a doctor. It emphasizes that being a doctor is more than just a career - it is a calling that requires strong character, ethics, and commitment to serving others above oneself. It outlines several key qualifications doctors must have, including a sense of responsibility, high ethical values, knowledge, skills, professionalism, and humility. Doctors are dealing with people's lives, so their work demands the utmost care, respect, and dedication. While the path of a doctor can be challenging, with stresses and potential lack of appreciation, finding satisfaction from within and serving others is most important. Medicine should be "lived", not just learned, with excellence as the goal.
The document summarizes the doctor-patient relationship. It discusses Parsons' model of the sick and doctor roles, types of relationships like paternalistic and consumerist, influences on the relationship like time pressures and patient characteristics, models of treatment decision making like shared decision making, improving communication skills, and how the relationship has changed from past to present with more emphasis on patient autonomy and mutuality now. The optimal relationship is one of mutual participation and shared decision making.
Medical ethics aims to define right and wrong in medical practice. It draws on ethical theories like consequentialism, deontology, and situational ethics. Key principles of medical ethics include autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, justice, and informed consent. Doctors have a duty to treat patients compassionately and respect their rights and privacy. Ethical issues arise when there are conflicts between values or responsibilities. Medical ethics provides frameworks for resolving dilemmas in a fair and just manner.
This document discusses the doctor-patient relationship and communication. It outlines Parsons' model of the sick role and doctor's role, and types of doctor-patient relationships including paternalism, mutuality, consumerism, and default. It covers influences on the relationship like time constraints, patient/doctor characteristics, and structural context. Effective communication skills, health literacy, consent, and partnerships in treatment decision making are also examined. The relationship has evolved from traditional paternalism to emphasize patient-centered care and shared decision making.
The document discusses how the doctor-patient relationship has changed over time from a paternalistic model to a more collaborative one where patients question doctors and seek more information. It attributes these changes to increased media exposure of malpractice, medical specialization, commercialization of healthcare, and the rise of technologies like telemedicine. The ideal relationship is described as one built on trust, communication, and seeing the patient as a whole person rather than just their disease. Doctors are encouraged to prioritize bedside manner, empathy, and explaining issues clearly to improve satisfaction.
The document discusses the doctor-patient relationship. It begins by defining the relationship as a consensual one where the patient seeks the doctor's assistance and the doctor accepts them as a patient. It describes three roots of the relationship: a social contract based on profession, the historical tradition of medicine, and the personal relationship between each doctor and patient. The relationship is important for providing excellent care, improving health outcomes, and aiding the healing process. However, research also finds that doctors often interrupt patients and fail to adequately communicate treatment plans. The relationship has evolved from a more paternalistic model to one emphasizing patient autonomy, choice, and mutual understanding between doctors and patients.

This document provides an overview of HIPAA privacy and confidentiality requirements for protected health information (PHI). It explains that HIPAA establishes national standards to give patients more control over their medical records and information while setting boundaries around how this sensitive data can be used and shared. Violations of HIPAA privacy rules carry civil and criminal penalties, and all healthcare staff, volunteers and students must be trained on and abide by these policies to protect patient privacy and build trust.
PHI 204 - The Patient-Doctor Relationshipdotcom YOGA
The document discusses key concepts in biomedical ethics related to the patient-doctor relationship, including informed consent, competence, autonomy, beneficence, and confidentiality. Informed consent requires doctors to disclose information to competent patients and for patients to decide on treatment. Surrogates can make decisions for incompetent patients. Advance directives allow autonomous patients to express future treatment preferences. While parents generally decide on children's treatment, mature minors can exercise autonomy. Models of the patient-doctor relationship include informative, paternalistic, interpretive, and deliberative. Therapeutic privilege and confidentiality also factor into ethical considerations.
The document discusses the patient-doctor relationship and how it has evolved. It describes the traditional paternalistic model where doctors make all decisions and the modern informed model where patients have more autonomy. The ideal model is described as mutuality, where doctors and patients communicate collaboratively to make the best decisions. Effective communication and understanding each other's perspectives and values are keys to success under this model.
Lecture on Professionalism in Medicine, prepared and presented by Dr. Mohamed Alrukban and Dr. Ghaiath Hussein for 4th year medical students in the Medical Ethics Course on Monday Febraury 5, 2012.
The document discusses the doctor-patient relationship (DPR) and its evolution over time. It outlines four historical models of the DPR: paternalistic, informative, interpretive, and deliberative. Traditionally, the paternalistic model placed doctors in a dominant role, but more recent models emphasize patient autonomy and a mutual relationship through communication and trust. Properly establishing the DPR requires both parties to understand expectations and negotiate needs, while avoiding overstepping professional boundaries.
The medical interview is the physician's most important diagnostic and therapeutic tool, but is difficult to master. It provides valuable patient information, yet receives little training focus. Effective communication skills like rapport building and active listening are especially important for EMTs and other pre-hospital providers to obtain information from patients. Models like partnership, shared decision making, and AIDET promote patient-centered care through open communication. Developing strong patient-doctor relationships requires commitment to caring communication skills.

5 Clinician-Patient Communication Gaps Compromising Your Hospital’s Outcomes,...Wellbe
Stephen Wilkins, MPH, is a thought leader, researcher, entrepreneur and blogger at Mind the Gap whose areas of expertise include patient engagement and physician-patient communications. He has over 20+ years experience as a hospital marketing executive, consumer health behavior and patient-centered communications expertise.
Wilkins shared with attendees a definition of patient-centered communications, provided practical examples of patient-centered communication skills in a hospital setting, contrasted a patient-centered style of communications with the more traditional physician-directed or paternalistic communication style and shared evidence demonstrating the benefits of clinician adoption of a patient-centered communication style and skills.
Wilkins identified the top 5 clinician-patient communication gaps found in most hospitals, including examples along with how these clinician-patient communication gaps impact the patients, clinicians and the organization. The webinar also provided strategies for closing the identified clinician-patient communication gaps.
The doctor patient relationship highly based upon the practices of medicineuniversity physicians
Physicians have many important responsibilities that require extensive education and training. They must spend years in medical school, internships, and residencies to develop skills in areas like counseling patients, diagnosing medical conditions, prescribing medications, and consulting with other experts on complex cases. As the ones responsible for patients' life and death concerns, physicians must perform their duties with the utmost care and prioritize patients' needs. Their main duty is to properly diagnose medical issues through examination, testing, and analyzing results to determine the cause of a patient's condition and decide on the appropriate treatment. They must also keep their medical knowledge up to date, maintain patient confidentiality, and ensure patients are well informed about treatment options.

THE CASE OF DAVID Z. AND AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS (ALS)
David, who has suffered with ALS for 20 years, is now hospitalized in a private religious hospital on a respirator. He spoke with his physician before he became incapacitated and asked that he be allowed to die if the suffering became too much for him. The physician agreed that, while he would not give David any drugs to assist a suicide, he would discontinue David’s respirator if asked to do so. David has now indicated through a prearranged code of blinking eye movements that he wants the respirator discontinued. David had signed his living will before he became ill, indicating that he did not want extraordinary means keeping him alive.
The nursing staff has alerted the hospital administrator about the impending discontinuation of the respirator. The administrator tells the physician that this is against the hospital’s policy. She states that once a patient is placed on a respirator, the family must seek a court order to have him or her removed from this type of life support. In addition, it is against hospital policy to have any staff members present during such a procedure. After consulting with the family, the physician orders an ambulance to transport the patient back to his home, where the physician discontinues the life support.

Introduction
Few topics are as important as the physician–patient relationship. This relationship impacts the entire healthcare team. All healthcare professionals who interact with the patient must understand their responsibilities to both the patient and the physician. The patient’s right to confidentiality must always be paramount.
The first physicians were “medicine men,” witch doctors, or sorcerers. The physician–pa.
Quality Data is Essential for Doctors Concerned with Patient EngagementHealth Catalyst
It might be a bit of a leap to associate quality data with improving the patient experience. But the pathway is apparent when you consider that physicians need data to track patient diagnoses, treatments, progress, and outcomes. The data must be high quality (easily accessible, standardized, comprehensive) so it simplifies, rather than complicates, the physician’s job. This becomes even more important in the pursuit of population health, as care teams need to easily identify at-risk patients in need of preventive or follow-up care. Patients engaged in their own care via portals and personal peripherals contribute to the volume and quality of data and feel empowered in the process. This physician and patient engagement leads to improved care and outcomes, and, ultimately, an improved patient experience.

Assessment and Planning in Educational technology.pptxKavitha Krishnan
In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. Top 10 Qualities a
Good Doctor Must Have
While utilizing solutions such as medical transcription
services can be beneficial for doctors, they should also
focus on fostering certain good qualities.

Doctors have a significant influence over their patients, and most patients consider their
word as final when it comes to healthcare related matters. Patients also expect a lot
from their care providers, especially care and compassion. Many physicians are finding it
difficult to rise up to their patients’ expectations in the current EHR-driven world, though
many of them are utilizing EHR-integrated medical transcription services to save
time spent on medical documentation and focus more on patients. While physicians
recognize the benefits of EHR, they also complain that many systems used today are
cumbersome when it comes to providing quality care and also put pressure on the
physician. Many studies have shown that physicians using EHR are frustrated about the
clerical tasks they have to complete and are more likely to get stressed out. This affects
the patient care they provide as well as their productivity. The more committed doctors
are to patient care, the more frustrated they get when they can’t focus on patients.
When on the subject of doctors and their pain and passion, let us consider what goes
into making a good doctor. Dr. Ranjana Srivastava, in her article published in
theguardian.com, highlights 3 qualities that are a must for any aspiring doctor.
Curiosity: Scientific knowledge and understanding are evolving rapidly, and
doctors must stay up to date with the latest information. Being curious about the
person who has the disease is important. Dr. Ranjana says, " I spend about as
much time prescribing chemotherapy to my patients as exploring who does their
groceries, tracking the progress of their spouse’s dementia, and checking
whether they can afford the bus fare to the hospital." For a doctor, it is much
more satisfying to treat the person rather than find out what the disease is.
Reflection: One must reflect to grow. Sometimes, patients may not like the
doctor telling the truth about their gloomy prognosis. Patients may even leave
the doctor in such instances. It is natural for doctors to feel humiliated and
depressed if that happens. But doctors should understand that you can never be
too sensitive or too subtle when having such discussions with their
patients. Communication is an important element in a healthcare setup and most
complaints stem from poor communication. Doctors can choose to be secretive
and not disclose grim health details to their patients. However, that is not a wise
strategy. On the other hand, a good doctor will choose the right time to disclose
a health condition and the associated risks to the patient in the best way
possible.
Empathy: Empathy is an important quality a doctor must have. There may be
rules that a sick patient must follow but it is empathy that helps decide what a
patient will do. Sometimes patients believe that doctors who show warmth are
less knowledgeable or less competent, and thus these doctors face a trade-off
3. www.medicaltranscriptionservicecompany.com 918-221-7809
between being perceived as competent or as empathetic. But studies have shown
that doctors who displayed empathetic nonverbal behavior such as eye contact,
smiling, and uncrossed arms were perceived as both warmer and more
competent.
Now, here are 7 other qualities a successful doctor must have.
Understanding: Understanding is the ability to think and act with what one
knows. For a doctor, learning for understanding is more like learning to have a
good conversation. According to David Perkins PhD, in the book Teaching for
Understanding: Linking Research with Practice, learning facts can be a crucial
backdrop to learning for understanding. In short, doctors should be able to
communicate with their patients effectively and the patients should understand
the doctors’ recommendations. Patients should not only have the knowledge but
must also be able to make decisions based on that knowledge.
Honesty: Being honest with patients is part of the routine for doctors and it is in
the American Medical Association's Code of Medical Ethics. But modern medicine
can lead physicians to hide the truth from patients. According to a 2012
nationwide survey of nearly 1,900 practicing physicians, one-fifth of physicians
said that fudging the truth is not necessarily out of bounds. Some doctors are not
very honest with their patients. Studies, however, show that gravely ill patients
prefer honesty from their physicians.
Commitment: Being committed to your profession is important for any job. In
the case of physicians, being committed is important for self-improvement.
Commitment protects individuals from the negative effects of stress as it enables
them to attach direction and meaning to their work. It also enables them to
resist the effects of stress and strain in their organizational environment.
Competence: Most American Physicians meet a basic threshold of competence
to ensure that they have basic level of knowledge. Doctors quality includes their
soft skills like empathy that can be measured through patient survey. Focusing
on intellectual skills is also crucial to collaborate and effectively lead teams.
Professionalism: To gain patients’ trust, doctors have to exude professionalism.
They should never look inattentive, impatient or dishevelled.
Courage: Moral courage is important and often used in the medical field. It
refers to the voluntary willingness to stand up for and act on one's ethical beliefs.
Physicians often face situations where they need moral courage like caring for an
infectious patient, meeting an angry patient or family member, disclosing
medical errors and so on.
4. www.medicaltranscriptionservicecompany.com 918-221-7809
Optimism: Doctors have to encourage patients to be optimistic because patients
who are more optimistic tend to have a better life and better health outcomes.
Being optimistic is linked to a range of physical health benefits ranging from
reduced risk for cardiovascular diseases and stroke to healthier level of
antioxidants and lipids.
Today, focus on these qualities has dwindled as doctors are multi tasking between
medical documenting and providing healthcare. This does not allow physicians to focus
completely on patient care and causes physician burnout. While support solutions such
as medical transcription outsourcing services can be beneficial, it is on the part of
the physicians themselves to utilize these. Apart from finding ways to lighten their
administrative burden, physicians should also strive to ensure maximum communication
with their patients and provide words of confidence and encouragement that are so
important for patients.
